(Crossposted from MediaCommons.)
I’ve hinted over the last several months that big things were afoot for MediaCommons, but haven’t been able to be terribly specific; at last, however, the haps:
Our friends at [the Institute for the Future of the Book](http://www.futureofthebook.org/blog/archives/2008/03/major_news_ifb_and_nyu_librari.html) have today announced their new institutional partnership with New York University (which [NYU](http://www.nyu.edu/public.affairs/releases/detail/2031) likewise announced recently).
Happily, the first fruits of this partnership directly benefit MediaCommons; working with the NYU digital library team, we have received an [NEH Digital Startup Grant](http://www.neh.gov/ODH/ODHUpdate/tabid/108/EntryID/30/Default.aspx) that will enable us to build the social networking backend for the fully-functional MediaCommons network we’ve been planning.
As Ben notes at if:book, we’re all enormously excited, and we’ll be looking forward to announcing more such developments in the future.
