My Next Tech Purchase: Hands Free Video Camera
"Looxcie looks like an amazing tool for any industry, but most notably for the visual-intensive industry of real estate... For real estate, this would be great for an impromptu video of a neighborhood, a drive through an area without having to fumble with a camera, a tour of a home for a buyer, an office tour, interviews with brokers or title reps for your blog, hyperlocal events like music, carnivals and the like- the options are endless. We'll be using it for interviews, at conferences, at lectures and probably for some office pranks."

Digital Media Test KitchenWhat can reporters do with always-on video?
"When we first saw this device, visions of many ways for journalists to use it in innovative and ground-breaking ways came to mind.
