I saw this at Buy.com and had to chuckle. A “Bloggie”?? Is that supposed to be a cute camera just for us bloggers?
It’s kind of cute. VERY portable, since we bloggers must always have a camera with us wherever we go, ready to whip it out at Walmart to take photos of strangely-dressed shoppers, or snap that once-in-a-lifetime action photo of Johnny falling off his bike, seconds before the road rash hits… yeah, it PAYS to be PREPARED!
The Bloggie has a touchscreen. Of course, I love that. It is actually pretty high tech for a tiny camera bloggers might haul around- it has a 12.8 megapixel camera (not even my $600 DSLR has that), full HD 1080 pixel video capability, 4 GB internal memory, and a swing out USB arm to plug it into the computer for easy photo transfer. I like it. It’s on sale at Buy.com for about $170 (includes shipping). It’s about the size of an iPod or iPhone. Looks very classy. When we travel, I dislike carrying my huge Nikon camera (and so do the kids), so something like this is very appealing.
The name is hilarious. Do you think they are finally starting to recognize our needs, and marketing products for bloggers? That would be cool. It’s nice to feel marketed to. ;)

Even before reading the last paragraph, I was thinking that it’s nice to be “marketed to”—that they are now recognizing the needs of bloggers….
The camera is cute but I still want the Canon S95 ….because it has all the features that I really love.

Hi Bingkee.
It’s cool that bloggers are finally getting some attention. I need a new minivan and wardrobe. Any companies out there want to market to me with that? :D
