Well I have seen the vids!

About the content, I have heard a mountain lot of good comments about Sweden: transport, high education, corruption, wellfare, silent and clean cities, cultural diversity (I do not think Sweden can challege Panama in this aspect); I remember a marine teacher I had that said even cemeteries are beautiful. The bad comment, I have heard from the mouth horse refers to pinpockets and robbers in Stockholm, very high budget to live, high taxes, liberal way of life (that's not a problem to me) and bad collegues disclosed in "The Local" (an electronic journal in English). The overall seem to be a better city to live than my hometown. However, I need to experiment it by myself in order to get an objective opinion.

The video quality is very high, even the fact, I have watched in normal quality.

The videos show a big problem about high education: lack of a trademark, lack of advertisment-- there are about 200 visit per month per video... for an internet perspective that numbers means which nobody is watching them.

USA have a special system to adverstise high education in gringoland: educationUSA. Fees and tuition will be a good idea, whether the high education system get the level of ads that have US. I suggest to experiment promotion and a extreme close colaboration between high education authorities and foreign ministry in order to get more students.

Hej!

I am webmaster of the un-official Gothenburg Erasmus weportal called "www.misi.se";. We at MISI team are always trying to increase our network connections and improve the stay of exchange students in GBG and we feel that an association with you guys would benefit us greatly and perhaps this might turn out to be a symbiotic relationship.

Anyway, we offer to display your video on the front page of our website with links to this website as a gesture of friendship. Please let us know, if this is acceptable to you.

Have a nice day!

Cheers,

Ravi Jay

I can't play the videos, although I have all the required software installed.

Can you please upload them to youtube.com so they can be easily viewable?

Thank you for the great effort

Hi, great to get your feedback Naveed. I will make sure to upload the films to youtube as well (as soon as I have time), which hopefully helps with the band width issue. Also, if you send me your contact info I can most likely provide you with a copy of the film that you feature in. :)

Though the quality was great, the videos dont seem to work with slow internet, any low quality ones for the narrow band users.

I guess i am in it :) Any chance i can save the video with myself.
