MoOM-MoOM Room

Coudal Partners, which seems to be the Hanso Foundation of the tote bag and web design set, continues to update their excellent Museum of Online Museums.

The MoOM features an ever-changing, curated, list of links to museums and collection, large and small:

Here, you will find links from our archives to online collections and exhibits covering a vast array of interests and obsessions: Start with a review of classic art and architecture, and graduate to the study of mundane (and sometimes bizarre) objects elevated to art by their numbers, juxtaposition, or passion of the collector.

The larger institutions featured are mostly design-related and well-covered, but there are tons of gems in the exhibition and collections section, many of which are hosted on personal websites, like the Faded Billboard collection, and the Gallery of Skatepark IDs.

And, just like a real museum, benefactors and board members get to throw their weight around a little bit!
