I just got the amazing little camera known as the FLIP and it truly makes me want to do flips.  It is so easy to operate, small, cute, and makes super digital videos.  I was so surprised by its size and sleekness and that it could be so small and produce such a great little video.  Then, I could pop it right into the computer via USB and it would upload so quickly. 

The particular FLIP that I have has 2 GB of storage space and will record 60 minutes of video.  It is small, black and silver and comes with a cute little carrying bag.  It is literally point and shoot with the click of one little button.

I think this little camera is perfect for a mom because it is so easy to use, small enough to carry with you anywhere and capture those fun memories of your children that you can never recreate.  Plus, as easy as it is to upload them to your computer you can have them saved on to DVDs in no time, securing your memories forever.

I tell you; they seem to be able to come up with better and better technology on a daily basis.  My younger brother has this cool tech gadget, a DVD Recorder, and we, as a family just love it.  He’s able to not only create DVDs of our home videos but also make copies for everyone in the family.  He’s even been able to make a little sideline cash by creating wedding DVDs and such for others.

This DVD Recorder allows him to create his own DVDs and /or make copies.  Of course, there are copyright laws out there that prohibit him from legally making copies of DVDs that we buy, but creating his own is more fun anyway.  He seems to think so too.  He gave me a great DVD of pictures of my kids complete with background music for Christmas this year.  What a special gift, all because of the power of technology and this awesome gadget.
