Hey, just so you know ... this post is now about 11 years and 6 months old so it very well may contain broken links and/or outdated information. Please keep that in mind as I can't be held responsible for out-of-date content!
Once I got broadband access, I decided to try out one of those eyeball-shaped Internet cameras. I chose Logitech’s USB QuickCam Pro. It was a snap to connect and configure: install the software, plug in the USB cable, and you’re up and running. Using SpyCam I was able to set up my own WebCam! It can also work as a motion-detector (recording video for a few seconds when it detects movement), an interface for immersive video games (something I’ve never tried), and useful for video conferencing (I personally use Eyeball Chat).

I still own this device, but really don’t use it anymore.
