Went through about 2 mics in my entire life. I found they always lasted around 1 year or less, each. They weren't cheap either! Around $20-40, and the brand name was Logitech.
After a family member Skype'd me (them having both webcam and mic while I have nothing but my keyboard) I thought it would be cool to be able to webcam them back. Plus I guess I need to get a mic again anyway. Just typing to friends gets old after a while.
I would like to know of a webcam that is decent quality and will not make me look fat.
A good brand for a mic would be cool too. I'm used to using mics that have a thin headset piece.
