Book almost written...

Staffroomproject is coming to an end and we have almost finished writing the book. We have gained tremendously from the writing process and hope to start sharing our ideas earlier than the first time around. All theory has been omitted, so have images, graphs, illustrations etc but these will be in the final publication. Some of the more lengthy examples have also not been uploaded.

We'll keep you informed!

How to use Flip Camera part 1

Flip Video Camera is quite possibly the most convenient mini camcorder available today. I have just bought one and the quality is good, sounds great and ridiculously easy to use!

Blurb:

* Simple to use, pocket-sized camcorder with one-touch recording and digital zoom
* Holds 60 minutes of full VGA-quality video on 2GB of built-in memory; no tapes or additional memory cards required
* Convenient USB arm plugs directly into your computer for easy viewing and sharing
* Built-in software lets you easily e-mail videos, upload to YouTube and MySpace, and capture still photos from video
* Watch videos instantly on TV with included cable



I will create a mini tutorial and post it soon.
