 hoohaa? you mean hook the camcorder up as a webcam? Wait, I think I can do that with my canon powershot, I remember reading something about that in all the gizmo functions it listed when I was trying to figure out how to turn it on and take pictures.

[Lise]

Yep, Russ. If you have USB port, you should be able to hook up your digital camcorder/camera to your computer. No need to buy extra webcam.

OMG, I have a camcorder too.  Oh OH, that kinda spells trouble.

[Sportsdude]

So do I, I'll see if It works.

 

[Russ]

ok i give up, im just going to buy a new one next week.

[Sportsdude]

can't find my usb cord for my camcorder ugh!  

[Lise]

Should point out that not all camcorder/camera will work. You need one that says specifically that it can hook up to the web and allow you to MSN.

[Sportsdude]

oh, I see so I'll get a new one for myself since the other one is the 'family' one.  

[Russ]

Yeah I thought so lise, thats why I gave up lol.
