Hahaha, sorry about that, but the video wasn't quite long enough for me to get everything in that I needed to say about a couple of them, so I had to speak really fast instead
Hey, I just thought I'd make some suggestions after watching your VodCast, as an audience and average consumer.
1. Please type out some of the specs and special features for the netbooks featured in the video. Like Josef said, the dialog goes by too fast, and it's easier if we can read the important stuff by pausing the video, rather than watching it again. If it's not trivial to do captions in the video, maybe you can provide the info and links in the description section of the page? They would really help.
2. I find the video kinda “jumps around” a lot. It might help if there's a particular theme to each week's video. I'm guessing this week's theme is “Hong Kong”, so I think the video should at least answer a few questions, like, “why were you in HK”, “what are some HK brands”, “what are HK's netbooks known for”, stuff like that.
3. Since you mentioned prices in Euros and Dollars, maybe you can also comment on whether or not it's worth it to purchase a netbook overseas. I'm from Taiwan, so I know, that, even though some of the better-known brands don't necessary cost less than their European or American counterpart, they come with a lot of accessories. So, as a consumer, I'd like to know if it's possible to get them outside HK and/or websites to purchase them from. I thought it'll be helpful to mention them if you're targeting global viewers.
4. Melody's segment is a bit too short. In the end, I don't think there was any info on the company and pricing for those accessories. Also, I didn't get to see the food they have at the restaurant :p
Thanks for your feedback. We're still quite new at this and we're sort of trying to figure out things as we go.
The weekly show is sort of a round-up of what we've done over the past couple of weeks in general, but as we happened to be in HK we decided to have a look at what was available there in terms of netbooks just to produce some different content.
Yes, I spoke way too fast in some of those videos, as we had limited footage and I guess I tried to cram in as much info as possible there.
We'll try to work a bit on the themes part, but it's not always what the weekly show is about, as I said, it's sort of a re-cap of the most interesting stuff we've seen over the past couple of weeks as well. However, that doesn't mean that we can't try to do it better, but it's also a learning curve for us.
I'll have a look see if I can't add some things via YouTube with links to at least the manufacturers websites on some of the products, but I couldn't even find specific details in English on some of the models.
In all fairness, we couldn't really compare everything this time when it came to the price difference and the pricing were straight translations from the price in HK$.
I'll let Nicole know about the last part with Melody as she shot that part, so I'll pass the buck
Thanks again for the feedback and we'll try harder next time. At least this kind of feedback is very helpful and hopefully you'll like the next Vodcast better.
Strange, it's not something we've noticed or had any complaints about. What system are you watching them on and does it happen when you watch them on YouTube as well?
I liked the reporter and how she kept things going quickly rather than beating around the bush. She's cute too (!), so that's an added plus.
I didn't find any choppiness to the video. I would like to see prices in USD, overlay on the screen when showing them if possible, along with the notebook model manufacturer and model.
We'll add the make, model and pricing into the videos when we do things like this in the future, but it doesn't seem like we can do clickable links right now.

I don't know why but this site's video playback is always choppy.
Other Youtube HD videos don't seem to have such problems.
