By accident, I ran across several videos that discuss a fabulous new project: the development of a digitized online museum collection. Below the jump is a video that introduces InvertNet.

These specimens — some of which are as much as 160 years old — are held in real-life collections at 22 institutions throughout the midwestern United States.
