What a girl wants is her diary and what a girl needs is this electronic version that includes a digital video camera with a small color LCD, individual time capsules and a networked pond that connects all the parts in the system. A girl 8-12 years of age captures video, stills and sound clips from her everyday life, stores them in whimsical time capsules and replays them on the color display of the camera by placing the capsules and camera in various locations in the pond.
