Memory gems! That's a thing!
That is an incredibly awesome thing!
That's...
That was actually a thing...
That was a...Fallout...Equestria thing...
I...
Not to take away from the awesomeness of the memory gem, but...
Fallout: Equestria is one step closer to have actually happened.
I'm not sure how to real about that.
what are memory gems??
Not to burst your bubble, but it looked more like a holographic image engraved into the gem with magic.
(...Or it totally could have been a data-storage gem, able to contain up to living consciousnesses, and beyond.)

Not quite. The pictures in the gems aren't moving or anything, they may just be Rarity's take on fancy, long lasting photograph/decorations.
Plus given the perspective of the two we see, they would have had to go grab a random guest from the welcoming party and a customer from that night at Joe's in order to for them to actually be extracted memories.

I claim this land in the name of Pony!
It is a fertile land, and I will call it...
...This land!
Seriously, though. Just calling it as I see it.

-technically- your still implying that something can be etched into the gem. all a hard drive is, is a disk of metal with a carefully attuned magnetic field. (or a CD, a thin round film with microscopic holes in a complex pattern).
If they aren't hologram gems now, give the ponies a while... it'll happen.
