Webitz - Checking out the Web from an amateur's point of view

Armchair Travel

July 1st 2007 13:31
I’ve always been interested in art galleries and museums whenever I travel anywhere, so it was good to discover that I could ‘travel’ to a large number of them from my chair at home (or from anyone else’s home as happens to be more the case at the moment) by using my computer.
The Museum of Online Museums is hosted by coudal.com (coudal’s own site is well worth visiting for its variety of ideas and artistic approaches) and it lists some hundred sites around the world. Most of them are in English, but occasionally

there’s one in a foreign language, like the Dexia Art Gallery in Belgium, or Toutes les autos de Tintin. (Go on, you can translate it easily!)
The wealth of artistic material available online has to be seen to be believed. I don’t know when I’ll get time to work my way through all these sites, but it would prove to be a worthwhile experience. Maybe a site a day is the way to go! (especially while I’m on holiday).
