Jul 17, 2008 -- Clark flips over the Flip
Oprah and Clark are on the same page about something again! First, they liked the same ice cream. Now, they've both gone crazy for a very simple technology -- little portable video cameras that are idiot-proof.
Most video cameras just gather dust in homes across America. They have too many attachments; they're too hard to use; and they're not small enough to be available during spontaneous moments. They're only good for planned events like graduations, weddings and more.
As a self-professed techno-idiot, Clark loves the Flip Ultra -- priced around $90. There's a built-in USB connector that pops out of the side and lets you automatically upload video to YouTube, PhotoBucket or anywhere else. Similar cameras from Creative Video and RCA are available in a comparable price range.
So if you've been missing touching moments on vacations, or with your children, this could be a perfect solution. You can instantly send video across the world from an Internet cafe.
