Astak's socially connected webcam tested
Astak's Mole is a remote controlled network camera with a twist: it integrates with a variety of social networks. Astak has thrown every possible feature into the Mole except for perhaps the proverbial kitchen sink. With an asking price of $279, the Mole theoretically offers a lot of features at a fairly attractive price point. But long list of features is one thing; a great user experience is entirely another. We'll see in our review if the Mole delivers both.

Worst Ever Webcam Design?
What was Hercules thinking when they designed this notebook webcam? When clipped to your laptop display it overhangs and obstructs whats on the screen! Even their product promo photos show the cam blocking the LCD panel in multiple images. What's next - a computer mouse that tips-over when you place it on a flat surface like a computer desk? Duh!
