Historypin: Libraries, Archives & Museums Sharing Content

Nick Stanhope, CEO of We Are What We Do, the non-profit organization behind Historypin, the citizen historian platform created with Google as a way for people to come together, from across different generations and cultures, to create and explore the history of their communities

Historypin (http://www.historypin.com/) is a way for millions of people
(and libraries, archives, and museums) to come together, from across
different generations, cultures, and places, to share small glimpses of
the past and to build up the huge story of human history. Historypin
is made up of photographic images, videos, audio clips, and descriptive
and narrative text that have been pinned directly to the Historypin map by users.
