On this 8th anniversary of the still-unimaginable attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, this date that will forever be known by its numerical shorthand, we take a moment to remember.

We remember the lives lost -- some in the attacks, some by those trying to save the injured. We remember where we were: traveling abroad, or at work atop a tall office building with a view of the smoke from downtown, or locked down on a visit to a federal office building.

With its new site, Make History, the National September 11th Memorial and Museum aims to take our memories of the day and use them to create a collective, interactive, living 9/11 memorial.

You can search for others' stories by timeline or subject, and upload your own, whether text, photo, audio or video.

By preserving our memories, we can never forget.
