Bloggers Product - Are there many now?

Is there such a term for products and gadgets? More and more people are starting their own blogs these days. Have the brands noticed this trend? Are there such things call bloggers product?

Being a blogger, I feel that there are essentials that any blogger will need or want to have. These things either will make their blogging experience more meaningful or makes it easier for them to update and share their experiences online.

The Essential Bloggers' Products

1. A good digital camera with video recording feature

2. A good mobile phone which allows bloggers to surf the internet, update their blog on the go, send emails, send photos and videos to their blogs or flickr account and allow high speed browsing.

3. A compact laptop that's light weight and portable.

4. Mobile broadband connections. Or the budget bloggers will try to tap onto Wireless@SG whenever possible.

5. Fuss free yet feature pack editing softwares for photos and videos.

Have you come across any product that you feel is a good blogger product? Post it on your blog and share with us. :)
