I try to save a lot of the uploading and sending when I am back in the States because I know that it may take ages in Bolivia. Mialy told me some of the obstacles especially on dialup connections. I'd definitely like to start a discussion on access issues and see how we can lobby for improved services with our home governments or something like that.... Yes, very much looking forward to the videos... Yes, I encounter the same when coming back and forth from Bolivia.

Our first times were so funny it involved CD sent by friends who happenned to travelled in South Africa or Mauritius or even DC (where internet is more 21st century). Then we used networking and friends with a better connection at home but then the loading could last hours (4 hours for a ....4 minute video.....). Finally , 6 months later thanks to the Film Your Issur contest we took the decision to never send more than 2 minutes videos which is easier to load, to translate and to watch ( youtube style). We're planning to take a ftp and more storage from Madagascar where everyone will be allowed to upload on a unique site....hurray! WE just have to check for budget, lol. So where are those videos again?!! You can’t imagine the wait….(kiddin)
