Hi Kate, I recently published a paper on UGC that cites a few projects which may be of interest to you, in particular Lignes de Temps at Centre Pompidou and the SmartTour at Tate Modern (also known as the Educational or Teacher Tools pilot). You can download it from our Wiki on mobile interpretation: http://tatehandheldconference.pbwiki.com/Resources There's a bit of information on each in the 'Case Studies' section of the Wiki, and also forthcoming in Jane Burton's keynote presentation.
I'm also copying this to Silvia Filippini Fantoni who has made personalization the subject of her PhD study, and as a result has done some research on UGC as well. I encourage you to join the Wiki and contribute your research to the UGC section! http://tatehandheldconference.pbwiki.com/User-Generated+Content Best wishes, Nancy On 9/16/08 3:00 PM, "mcn-l-request at mcn.edu" <mcn-l-request at mcn.edu> wrote: > Send mcn-l mailing list submissions to > mcn-l at mcn.edu > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > mcn-l-request at mcn.edu > > You can reach the person managing the list at > mcn-l-owner at mcn.edu > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of mcn-l digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
