This is a walk through of the most basic features of Miro. This is the exact same video as seen on GetMiro.com.
Many Miro users don't realize that there is a social mission driving our project. Last week I recorded Nick Reville, our executive director, giving his pitch for open video and Miro.If you're wondering how a piece of software could possibly pave the way to a more independent and democratic media space, definitely watch this video.
A 74 second introduction to Miro, the internet TV application. This video is shown on the first load of Miro once you have downloaded and installed it.
Supporters of Open Media: Miro is made by a non-profit organization that is leading the fight for open internet video: hundreds of thousands of people use our open software every month, we've powered the distribution of thousands of independent creators and public broadcasters, and we're demonstrating why net neutrality matters. Miro has a chance to become a desktop application for a truly mass audience. If we can reach this point, we'll have ensured that open video distribution, without censorship or corporate gatekeepers, will be here to stay. But we're at a critical moment. Our team cares deeply about our mission and we need to ensure that our work can continue. Two large donors have promised to commit funding if we can also build strong support from our users. There is no more important time than right now for you to donate—we're taking steps towards self-sustainability—in the meantime we urgently need your support. I hope you’ll join our effort to build a more open media. Sincerely, Nicholas Reville, Executive Director
Dear Potential Donor: Online video is growing rapidly, but is also facing a crisis: a few very large sites have dominant market share and cases of corporate censorship are happening every single day. Creators are stuck. Miro is leading the fight to ensure that video online can be open to every creator, anywhere in the world. This is truly a battle for the future of free speech and media access. Miro is software that can be one of the most important solutions to keeping online video open and democratic. With broadcast TV, a few companies own a few channels; Miro creates an online system for video that is open to an unlimited number of channels and websites. The future of online video and TV can be as open and democratic as the internet itself as long as Miro is in the game. Like any 501c3, all donations to the Participatory Culture Foundation (creators of Miro) are 100% tax-deductible. But what makes giving to Miro uniquely powerful is that at the same time that we are directly advancing our mission, we are also building for the long-term. Since our 1.0 release in November 2007, we have moved quickly to create an earned income program that, in the model of Mozilla, will eventually support all of our activities. We need your help so that we can continue to grow Miro to the point that it can become self-sustaining. Your investment in open media right now will pay benefits to everyone for many years to come. We started our work in 2005 as a nonprofit because we could see what was going to and can still happen in this emerging market of online video—we're a proactive media activism organization with a product that can effectively fight for one of the most winnable fights against large and fierce companies we're facing now. We are always happy to discuss giving options and give you more details about our organization and our business plan. Please don't hesitate to talk to me personally to learn more—you can reach me at nicholas(at)pculture.org or 1-508-963-7832. We are also happy to introduce you to some of our current supporters who can tell you more about their giving experience and why they have chosen to invest in our work. Sincerely, Nicholas Reville

Alex Polvi, friend of Miro and a community marketer for Mozilla, has won a Vidoop contest called How do you identify? with a very cute video (see below). Vidoop is a company that takes a cool approach to internet logins, with an OpenID service that gives you one universal login and an option for image grid based identification (take a look). Alex is donating his $1000 prize to Miro and Vidoop is matching that. Thanks so much guys! Here’s Alex’s winning video (with a shout-out to Miro): A little insight into how I identify. Shot with my iSight + iMovie.
