"Always check the cables!" - Boudreaux Goes to Paris - about 2.5 minutes
Via YouTube - Produced May 11, 2007, using an unedited MP3 recording from a telephone call in January, 2004 with David Boudreaux of Nicholls State University. 
There are several easy, legal ways to record telephone calls (e.g., RadioShack gizmos;  Skype + Skylook software).  LecShare Pro + PowerPoint + audio recording easily, rapidly produces a variety of formats (see below) including mpeg4, which can be uploaded easily, quickly, and free to YouTube! - where almost anyone can "play" it.  Can become part of a YouTube "channel" - essentially a video podcast (vodcast?) including use of an RSS feed subscription.

"The Last Day of Class" - Todd Zakrajsek, CMU - about 5 minutes
Need QuickTime or similar player.  Video recording.  Lots of very specific suggestions in a very short time.  Is this use of a "talking head" justified by the quality of the sound, voice, and - especially - the content?  What could have enhanced it?

Lee LeFever, The Common Craft Show - VERY CLEVER "anti-PowerPoint" charm!!  How well would this work if it were the 10th example in two days using the same technique?  How much work, time went into writing, producing, editing?

"Attending Genocide Conference" - about 4.5 minutes
Kathleen Young et al., Anthropology Dept., Western Wash. Univ.  
This was one of the first, and most provocative, responses to my request for examples of "clips" 4/12/2007. It is embedded in a Website and related "portfolio" of materials (including student essays both text and photographic) that provide an excellent model for one way to extend the possibilities of a brief eClip.  Please don't be intimidated by the exceptional quality of this example.
