Are webcams only for laptops? Can you do YouTube on one?
Wow I'm stupid. So you know how people record themselves playing guitar and stuff to put on youtube? Well, I thought you could only use a camera. I just discovered people use webcams. But how? Is it only for laptops? Or can you buy a webcam and sit it on your computer? And if you do...what program do you get?

Actually
All webcams that is intended for PC have many purpose! the software is already included in the CD-driver. no need for additional Software!, but you can also use the built in windows movie maker! to upload it to youtube, you had to convert the file to the .flv format (common file type used by youtube). finds the converter on www.majorgeeks.com mostly it is a freeware!

You can buy a webcam and connect it to any computer, usually via USB. They can cost anywhere from $20 to more than $100 depending on the model.
Some laptops have a built-in webcam, but the quality usually isn't very good.
Many instant messengers, such as MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Skype, and AIM, support webcams. If you buy a webcam it is also likely to include software for you to record videos directly.
