Which camcorder is best when it comes to making videos for the web?

More than most of the Internet [...]
Last week in Paris, the largest European web event was a wrap. As you may know, it is organized by the very public Loïc Le Meur and his wife Géraldine. Both now living in San Francisco but originally from France. Also, out of the 1600 attendees, only a few Montrealer’s made the trip. One investor, [...]
