PocketCam even supports audio, so you can use your Android device as a wireless microphone.

PocketCam works with any Windows-based webcam applications, including instant message applications such as MSN LIve Messenger, Skype, AIM, etc.  For Mac users, PocketCam works with any Mac applications that use QuickTime for video capturing, including GTalk, Skype, and aMSN.
