We hadn’t been received any video submissions, yet, so it seemed a good way to show off our capacity to host video. Check out a few examples here, here, and here.

Looking through the videos, we realized we had the makings of a good promotional video to try to help get the word out about the Memory Bank. A little bit of video editing later, and we’d put together the first Mozilla Digital Memory Bank Promo Video:

Check it out– send it to anyone you think might be interested in the Memory Bank! Help get the word out!

(And if you really enjoyed the video, a longer version– the “director’s cut,” if you will– can be found here.)

In a similar vein, trying to get the word out, we’ve recently created a Facebook page and a LiveJournal page, in addition to our Youtube page.

Being a veteran of the Netscape era, as well as working on a project not named Firefox, Mike’s interview is somewhat unique among those currently in the archive.
