Also, if you capture using Windows Movie Maker you can compress it as you capture, resulting in a much smaller raw file.  Quality suffers, but if you're just using it for videoblogging at 320x240 or so, you won't see much of a difference.  Capture it at 1.5mbps or so.

This is just a humble suggestion from the peanut gallery... but:

When I capture my video I do a bit of "Mini-editing" during capture.  I tend
to Pre-view the footage I've taped and then rewind and "Stop capture" on
portions that are either obvious bad shots or not central to the plot line
of my end product.  That way I automatically cut some space and time off of
the production before I even begin my editing process.

Perhaps that could help you as well seeing as how you are dealing with
limited drive space.

Cheers!
