I was reminded today of a difficult project I worked on a few years ago: creating a multimedia CD that would display text and video through your browser.

Lesson learned:

There is a substantially higher expectation that things 'just work' when you have a physical medium (like a CD) than when browsing the internet.

The nonprofit organization I was serving with had received a short (about five minutes), professionally produced news spotlight from a regional cable network and wanted to use it as a promotional piece, along with some info about our programs and a link to our website.
