+**Selenium Community Live - Episode 1**
+
+Collaboration, communication and community are the force behind the success of the Selenium Project in open source for last twenty years.
+Jason Huggins and Simon Stewart with their respective projects Selenium and WebDriver collaborated and brought together Selenium WebDriver.
+Eventually WebDriver became a W3C standard for browser automation, and Jim Evans and Manoj Kumar in the first episode of Selenium Community Live
+discuss all about Selenium, and making of the WebDriver standard. They shed light on the process and people behind building these specifications.
+They also spoke about various browser vendors and browser automation projects coming together to collaborate on making the next standard in browser automation
+WebDriver Bi-Di. The Selenium project extend thanks to both Jim and Manoj for commemorating the first episode for community.
