Today, almost everything is turning digital. A society that does not exist on the internet, almost does not exist at all. New generations are somewhat born into the digital world, they grow up with cutting-edge technologies and virtual worlds. Our society is changing into a digitial society.

Where can we find museums in this digital world? How can the youth include museums into their own lives using digital technologies?
