If everything was this simple...
Nov. 14th, 2007 02:10 pmI bought myself a new toy. An RCA SmallWonder. It's a small and cheap - I got mine for under $100 via one of those best price websites.
But mainly it is stupid easy and I mean that. Out of the box, you press 'on'. It comes with batteries installed so when you press 'on' the thing comes on. When you press the red button, it records. I plugged the USB into my PC. Notice, I did not say 'I found the CD and put it in the computer to install the software.' Oh no. When I plugged the thing into the USB port, it installed the cutest little application.
The application, saves my movies, let's me trim and sew them together and upload them. Seriously. They made this thing so that Travis could be Cecil B. DeMille if he wants.
Within this little application is an 'upload your video' bit that puts your movies on a website and then creates a little icon for here. This is a test, this is only a test.
(note to self, hold off on putting that tootsie roll into your mouth until after you finish shooting the video)
