There are two kinds of people in the world - those that believe that there are two types of people in the world, and those that don’t.

When it comes to collecting, there probably are two types of people in the world. Those that collect, and those that don’t. I am a collector (or hoarder).

We work with a lot of Museums who are in the business of collecting, but I am intrigued by individuals that are compelled to put their own collections online.

The Stewardess Uniform Collection

online collections

The Cigarette Packs Collections
(This website is about cigarettes packs collection ! One of the biggest website on this subject in the world !)

smoking collection

This Is My Badge Collection

Welcome To My Police Hats Collection

The Incredible World of Navel Fluff

exceptional online collections

Looking at the examples above, it makes me wonder, in the new socially networked web, if there isn’t a service that could be offered to those who want to publish their own collection online; and to join these disparate collections together.

What do you think?
