Here I sit like an idiot because of what happened at Radio Shack.
I have a webcam sitting on top of my monitor. All I can do is take pictures in front of my computer. I don't own any other camera. I wanted to make a video of my sprouts in my kitchen. I said to myself "why can't they make an extension for my webcam". I walked to Radio Shack and said the following: "You know how they have extension cords?" and the guy said "yeah" I then said "well, I have a webcam that doesn't reach into the kitchen, do they make extension cords for the usb stuff"? He burst out laughing and took me over to the wall and there it was: "USB EXTENSION CABLE". It was also over thirty dollars. I tried going to the ninety nine cents store and they have 6 foot ones. I want a 15 foot one. Can I link them up like I would do an extension cord? Also, I know there is USB 1 AND USB 2 (at least I think there is). I have a 4 year old HP Media Center with 3700 AMD ATHLON 64 processor if that gives you any information on the type of extension cable I would need to buy. Man, if I could bring the webcam into the other room, that would be so cool. Thanks Melody
