I know these services have plenty of PC Magazine enthusiasts, but I'm not among them, yet. (Q: "Can you see me now?" A: "Not very well.") And if you're not using your webcam to connect with faraway friends or relatives, what's the point of having one? Here's one thought: What if you could turn your webcam into a TV camera, able to broadcast live video virtually anywhere in the world? Here's another: What if you could record a talking-head video of yourself that would pop up on your Web site, giving visitors a surprising, personalized greeting? One more: Use your webcam to record a video greeting to send via e-mail instead of boring old text. These three ideas are behind a trio of new Web services, all of them free, all of them offering a lot more bang for yo...
