"My Webcam" video and Logitech

In 2006, Bowiechick posted a video titled The Breakup, in which they discusses their personal life while experimenting with web cam effects. After receiving many comments about the effects, they produced a video titled My Webcam, explaining how the effects were achieved using a Logitech Quickcam Orbit MP. [4]

The My Webcam video is credited as doubling sales for Logitech at Amazon.com, rousing the interest of other businesses that wished to duplicate this result. [5] Apparently, the viewer reaction was in response to the use of Logitech Video Effects in their video. Despite garnering publicity for the manufacturer, Bowiechick did not participate in a paid promotion. [6]
