Computer History Museum
I really enjoyed this site. I viewed the background video and was impressed with the concept of capturing history as it is happening. I like the museum's effort to recognize and honor people who make contributions to the computer industry. Not everyone can be Paris Hilton. My my favorite exhibit was "visible storage". After reading Moore's Law, I could directly apply that trend to the obvious "shrinkage" of personal computers, etc.

I agree that the site was very interesting. I find it cool and somewhat odd to think that their is so much history on the computer and information technology that an entire museum could be devoted to it. As our readings suggest that the subject will only continue to grow in the future, it will be interesting to see what place it takes within history
