It's a sobering thought that vi is 40 years old this year. (I can't find
the exact date, but it was in 1976.)

Hello Vim users!

On November 2nd I did a presentation about Vim at Google Zurich.
This is exactly 25 years since the first public version of Vim was
built.

The presentation gives an overview of Vim history and highlights the
important choices that were made.  With background information on
my personal life and what was the state of computing, the context in
which Vim was developed.

It took a while to get the video and clean it up for publication.  You
can only see the slides and what is presented, unfortunately the camera
recording quality was not good so I could not use it.

You can find it here: https://youtu.be/ayc_qpB-93o

Happy Vimming!
