In this memory:
Rosie Sherry
Having this "Memory" feature made me start trying to remember how I even discovered Ministry of Testing, or as I think it was back in the day, Software Testing Club? I've looked through my email, the Testing Planet goes back at least to 2010. I think my first TestBash was 2013 (and was that the second one ever?) Is there a history of the MoTaverse somewhere?

I like to say that "community creates history", and a big reason for Memories and MoT Profiles is to be able to have an accessible history of it.
Your first TestBash was 2013, and we know that because we have your talk recorded, but what's more is that the talk is available on your MoT Profile, it takes some 'loading more' button clicking at the moment to get to it.

2007 was when it started, as STC.

We have plans (not sure when we'll get there) to organise MoT Profiles better by type of content. So it could be separated out by talks, articles, observatory bookmarks, etc.
Overall, I'm a bit obsessed with doubling down on the community knowledge.

It's amazing that content from years ago is still accessible! And as a community - it is so ingrained in my mind that I don't have a starting point for it, it's as if it has always been here! 😄

At some point in the not-too-distant future we hope to have a MoTBot that can learn from everything everyone has shared over the years. 🤩
