So I just posted and archived my very first vid. Although "my" is a misnomer - I should say "our," since the vid was the product of a collaboration with przed.

( Some rambling thoughts about collaboration... )

The amazing and generous przed and I have collaborated  on a Pros vid - my very first vid ever - which premiered at ZebraCon:
