There have been an uncountable number of times Girlawhirl's thought to herself, “I wish I'd caught that on camera.” But really, who has the time – or handbag space for that matter – to carry a camcorder all the time? While both her phone and digital camera have limited video capability, if she actually thinks to use either, she doesn't like the quality when – and if – she figures out how to get it out of those devices. Things may change though, now that she's found a lightweight camcorder designed for easy video sharing… Girlawhirl had heard about the ease of Flip Video, the pocket-sized camcorders designed with video sharing in mind. But after giving the new model a test run she doesn't know how she's lived so long without one.
The newest model – Flip Video Mino – is just what burgeoning moviemakers like her need to create quick, shareable videos. Forty percent smaller than Flip's Ultra Series, the super thin Mino contains 2 GB of flash memory able to capture 60 minutes of video. And the touch controls and glare-free 1.5-inch screen lets her record, view and delete her videos with ease.
When capturing and sharing video is this easy, Girlawhirl's run out of excuses for an off-camera lifestyle. She's ready for her close-up.
Girlawhirl found her Flip Video Mino in her online shopping mall at amazon.com.

But the coolest part of the flip is how easy it is to upload her video. The built-in, pop-out, USB arm lets Girlawhirl literally plug right into her computer, and the high-speed software makes saving and organizing clips – on either a Mac or PC – a snap. She can even hook up her Flip Video Mino directly to her TV, for even easier viewing.
