Sorry the 25 reasons page is down. We'll fix that asap.<p>At HippoCamps, we hope to be the the 'Wikipedia for Memories'.<p>The idea is that users can record and relive memories publicly AND in private groups. We then take all of your memories and remind you of old moments and experiences that you may have forgotten, or may want to update.<p>The hope is that, like a brain, we can help you relive and recall moments based on other inputs and memories over time.<p>Twitter is awesome, and is great for subjects, but HippoCamps wants to help you better manage your actual moments.<p>Thanks for the great feedback. We'll work harder to make our service clearer-<p>Thanks, Ben, HippoCamps Founder

I keep on pressing the "25 Reasons Why You'll love us" button and nothing happens, in either firefox and chrome.<p>I'm sort of confused as to what exactly this is. Seems to me its like twitter with pictures and video. I think it actually would of been a good idea to create a twitter hashtag, and build on top of there platform. Or maybe its like a facebook wall ?

Seems cool. The most interesting "Do you remember..." things I can think of are the ones that are no longer around and you never really think about... things like Pepsi Clear, or like PDA's back before they had anything to do with phones. But I don't remember any of the things currently posted on the home page (except for the ones that are still around obviously).

This seems like a very natural tie-in with your facebook friends. One of the few times fb connect makes sense!

This is pretty cool. I like the idea of memories being bite sized.

If you can make this a wikipedia for memory, this will be big

It reminds me of fat camp.
