Tags
You can tag pages of the Australian Museum website. When you add a tag to a page it will be recorded on your Tags tab in My Museum.

Sets
You can organise your favourites in to Sets (groups) related to a particular topic of study e.g. Australian megafauna or fossils. You can name your set, add notes to it and share it with students or colleagues.
Expert
You could apply or may be invited by the Museum to be an 'Expert' in an area where you have a particular skill, knowledge or experience. When commenting, you will be publicly acknowledged by the Australian Museum as an 'Expert'.
