You'll see VCR vids! You'll see VCR vids about making VCR vids! The Wayback Machine provides a glimpse of the rich history of vidding, and also gives newer folks a chance to view vids they might not otherwise get to see. Warning: there may be a brief interpretive dance. Don't be afraid--culture is god for you! (P.S. not kidding about the interpretive dance.)
