Ten years later
The events of September 11, 2001 changed the lives of so many people around the world.
In the years since that day, thoughtful online efforts have provided an outlet for grief, for
learning and a means for healing. Virtual spaces have helped us to remember the victims
and honor the courage of those who risked their lives to save others.
On this 10th anniversary, we wanted to note a few of these virtual places:
9/11 Memorial
* On Monday September 12, the 9/11 Memorial will open to the public within the original footprint
of the twin towers. Our relationship with the 9/11 Memorial team dates back to 2009, when we
collaborated to build their Make History site. This web archive lets people place and share their
photos and videos in geographical context, collectively piecing together the history that was
witnessed, one photo or video at a time.
* The 9/11 Memorial has also produced a commemorative album called Ten Years On, a musical
tribute featuring well-known musicians and performers. The album has inspired a video archive
project on YouTube of the same name which encourages people to submit video tributes to those
affected by the events of 9/11.
The New York Times
* YouTube also worked with The New York Times on a YouTube Channel featuring archived news
broadcasts and personal stories and reflections from the public.
Mountain Lakes (NJ) Volunteer Fire Department
* John Reilly, a software executive and Deputy Chief of the Mountain Lakes (NJ) Volunteer Fire
Department, built First-Responder to help community organizations like fire departments and EMS
corps increase their emergency preparedness and respond more effectively to crises. This open
source application uses freely available web tools to map critical resources and contingency plans,
dispatch and track first responders, and interoperate with mutual aid organizations during emergencies.
It’s been an honor to see these tools being built using our platforms and products—and humbling to see
them come to life.
