This video was a comedy of errors as with so many technological endeavors. We wanted to view the video with the family on our television. We tried accessing you tube, vimeo, etc. through our Wii console and ran into one problem after another. When we finally got logged into my You Tube account and found the video, they had already yanked it for copyright (they didn't like my use of John Lennon's song). Vimeo didn't like the format of the video. So we finally gave up and I hope I we'll be getting Apple TV soon to make this process easier. Since the family time capsule is really only of interest to family, there isn't a need to share it on the internet. Viewing it on a big screen would have been nice though. It was fun to pull all of these images and video clips together. I couldn't believe all of the things we did in a year. This is a great exercise for anyone interested in capturing a year in time. One of my favorite bloggers offers classes in the art of creating video time capsules and here is more information about her class: http://www.xantheberkeley.com/creating-time-capsules/. I haven't taken the class but she has some great ideas and is very talented at capturing big and small moments in her family's life. So here is my sophomore effort at the first Driftless family time capsule.

Can't believe I had not seen this before. As you say, it's of interest mostly to your Driftless Family, but it's amazing to see how the kiddos have grown. I love it. GK
