I think some of my favorite posts have actually come from the staff, it all helps to de-mystify the museum as institution.

For some reason, everyone loves a good look behind the scenes, it’s usually weirder than people expect. I think a museum blog that did nothing but really bring people into the working guts of the museum would be entertaining, fresh, and raise all kinds of questions about how museums operate, who they serve, and why they exist. Maybe others from the staff will follow suit? I know people go nuts for stories about artwork being craned in over other buildings and such. Also security guards get ridiculous questions from visitors all the time, but that content has no place to go.
