I decided to get the Flip Mino HD because it was very small and shoots in High Definition. It’s just so simple to use. There aren’t a lot of bells and whistles on it. In fact there are none! It barely even zooms in/out! So far I am really liking it and I’ve been shooting a lot of video with it. Which is my main reason for getting it. My other camera was just too bulky for me to carry around all the time. With the Flip I can just drop it in my pocket and take it with me anywhere. It’s the same reason I love point-and-shoot cameras. I’d love to have a really nice SLR camera, but if I’m not going to have it with me the majority of the time then what’s the point? I feel the same about video cameras.

If you’re looking for a cheap, easy to use, HD video camera then I definitely recommend the Flip Mino HD!

It took me a few hours to set it up last night but its up and running now. I’m looking forward to having the peace of mind of having all my data backed up and never having to think about it. And with 1 terra byte of storage space, I shouldn’t have to worry about getting another hard drive for a while.

Also, I can’t wait to have a central location for all my music and photos so that all of my computers can access the same libraries without having to plug in an external hard drive all the time.

Our camera fell on the ground and broke last weekend while we were at Disneyland. After spending a few days doing a bit of research, I decided on getting the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5. I went and got it last night and have been playing around with it since then. So far I’m happy with it. It’s a nice, 9 mega pixel camera with some cool features; like image stabilization, face recognition, 10x Optical Zoom, wide ange lens, HD video, etc.. I’m looking forward to taking lots of pictures with this new camera.

It was finally time for my Dad to upgrade to a new computer. It’s probably been almost 10 years since he got the last one. I’m happy to say that he’s gone ahead and got a brand-spanking new iMac! Yes, that’s right, he’s gone and got his very first Mac! I’m very excited for him. Now he gets to see what its like to use a Real computer and Operating System. Ha ha

Congratulations Dad!
