So I was sitting in the Bloghaus at South by Southwest (SXSW) one day and Ted Shelton from The Conversation Group comes up and says, “Here! Take this camera and go shoot the SXSW experience and bring it back to me. I’ll post your video on the web. Maybe you’ll even get a free camera.” I look at the unit, a FlipVideo Ultra not much bigger than a decent cell phone. It fits in your pocket and has about four buttons on it. I’m skeptical, but figure what the heck. But I never leave a chance to get a free gadget in limbo.
