[BNM] [OT] Video help

[Raj Anand]

Thanks for your feedback Neil. Really appreciate your thoughts! Its a great
opportunity for me to learn, after all its my first ever video.

I will try and get rid of the scrolling text.



In regards to: "One of Europe's Top Social Networking Software"

We are one of the only European social networking solutions to be covered on
Techcrunch. Winner of BusinessWeek Award (right that was a personal
achievement but it was solely for building Kwiqq). If you feel we are not
the one of Europe's top, then we will be shortly. Watch this space :)
