My goodness, you do pick them.
David Irving and Jimmy Wales. Have you managed to find someone less important to interview or is that humanly impossible?

Thanks I do my best!!

Please bear in my mind that this is just a hobby - it is not my day job.

If you are interested in David Irving then you may be interested to see some of the holocaust related films I have posted here.

For those that like to complain about the poor quality of my films this is your chance to have some input.
My Sony Cybershot - used for all films here but one - has given up on me. I do not want to buy a video camera - just a compact camera which I can carry around in my pocket.
What camera should I buy and why?

Pop down to your local lombard and buy whatever is going cheap (that's what I did).

Sound quality: this isn't an equipment issue. It's about how you use it (e.g. sit as far from the camera's microphone as the person you are interviewing).

Without a tripod, a table-type-thing acts as a worthy substitute.

"Reasonable labor costs with quality" - thanks for the indorsement! ;)

As for the popularity, people in Poland seem to have a complex of not being noticed in the World. In fact, that complex has some grounds: Poland is, comparably to her size, much less on the news, (or when it is, it's "the German view": poor, primitive etc.). On top of that here in Poland there seems to be a real love of communicating with others: see the data on Skype and IRC usage (it's very high).

I do not know if skype use is any more than elsewhere. On a recent journey to several countries I found that skype was just as popular as in Poland.
(What is IRC?)
