The Museum of Small Things

Here’s an interesting concept for a museum: the online Museum of Small Things. The items featured here are often so small they are only visible through a microscope. There are four collections: · the freshwater collection · the marine collection · the insectarium · the botanical garden Some items featured include the water flea, a mosquito wing (which is amazingly attractive up close), algae, and daisy pollen. I would have like to see a little more information on some of the material, as some of the displays only have a label with no explanation of what they are. For example, I have no idea what a sessile is. Despite this, the site is still a good browse.
