To capture video from the digital camcorder to the PC you will need a combination of hardware and software. For hardware you need a PC with a Firewire card (also known as iLink by Sony, and IEEE 1394 by PC's). To this you will connect your camcorder via a Firewire cable. Some camcorders and laptops use a mini-firewire cable. Thats all you need for hardware - other than a huge hard drive to hold all the video.

For software, I use Adobe Premiere to capture and edit the video. This is pretty expensive software, so you might want to look into other products at your local software store. Windows XP also includes Windows Movie Maker. Though I don't know how well this works for capturing or editing.

To post your videos, or pictures you will need a webservice. You can't do this from your own pc. You upload to the webservice and then link your pictures and videos from there. Many ISP's offer some sort of webspace for posting pictures, but may not allow you to link directly to them or post pictures directly to another web site. My pictures and videos are posted via my webservice where I keep my domain: [link=http://www.scubadivervideo.com]www.scubadivervideo.com[/link]
