People might think they dont need to take a train to go there. But anyway, it is a nice first video to present the place. Good job!

I recently purchased a great camcorder and I can't wait to use it. Previously, I was at the mercy of a torture device called a mini dv camcorder....yeah, it was cruel and unusual. Now that I have decided to join the 21st century, I am looking forward to uploading videos to youtube with minimal embarrassment! Thanks for the nudge. Also, I would like to add your site to my blogroll, if you don't mind. Good stuff! Not bad for a first video, Matt! I recently purchased a great camcorder and I can’t wait to use it.

It wasn't until I was halfway through that I realized I was rambling. Hence why the dialogue in the send half is shorter. Future videos will be around 2-3 minutes long.And the Mac is the best for video but, I'm a PC guy. I'm not sure I want to make the switch! You are right about length.

I like it, first of all because of the personal touch from you, but also because you alter between your comment and nice view of the scenery. Your informations is substantial and just about the right portion. The picture quality is great too - one see all the needed details.I use WMM too. I'm not sure I can teach you anything new, but by all means; send me your questions.Btw: It's not always grey days in Oslo, Norway. I had a globetrotter from Singapore visiting this week and it was a nice and sunny weather - just check my last post! :lol: To be the first travel video, this is brilliant Matt!

Like Kirsty said, you've got a nice presence on the video. You'd probably make a great host for a travel show! Looking forward to see more vids. I like your first video, Matt.

I know that can be hard because you have limited options due to copyrighting.Definitely want to keep the videos shorter as Heather suggests. The length is always the first thing I look at / think about when considering whether to watch a video or listen to a podcast...and to be honest, I actually stopped halfway through to leave you my feedback. :) Wow, Heather has some great tips!
