I have just seen the thingamajigs that are called microphone and people use for online conversations, for I have so far lived in jungles, at trees. I have decided to get a relatively cheap one, but it doesn't work well. I just wonder what microphones you use for that purpose? Could someone give me some called-"technical" details of their microphone, please ?

So, which model of Logitech? I reckon there are at least several models of this brand. And could I find a microphone or headset with microphone of Logitech in Turkey?

http://logitech-europe.com/turkey/
should answer to some of your questions.
i got a Logitech microphone without headset. Works perfectly.
There are several models of headset and microphones...
I guess, differences are like plug into USB, adjustable headset, headset with built-in sound equalizer, noise-reducting microphone... details which are up to you to choose. In my opinion, a simple headset with microphone will work perfectly. 
If you think in "modernising", a webcam with headset may worth some consideration.

I have no problem with breaking headsets. All I want to know is that what and what kind of headset would serve my purpose. Recently and yesterday I bought quite cheap two headsets (partly because I couldn't find the expensives ones) and neither of them works fine. I recorded my voice for a test and the result is "terrible"! Whereas I was told headsets (as well as microphones) are all the same and that another factor would be the speed of my internet connection. Well, the speed of my connection is not perfect, but not much slow either. What headset do you use by the way? Are you fine with the one you use for IMs? Could people whom you talk through IMs hear you flawlessly?

Wasn't i just repeating myself?
That means this microphone is really worthing it!
Yep, headsets may have short life, but is much better to have a good headset then taking the risk of a detached wire after two days of using a no-name stuff...

I strongly recommend logitech for headsets also.
If the webside will not provide shops where you can buy, try in Sirkeci. And tryemon before buyin

Thank you portokal. but there is not anything at the site, let alone microphones!

I was told the same by some others, and I bought two simple and cheap headsets accordingly. With them, listening to music is fine; but when it comes to using their mic...

hmmm... indeed, checked the turkish page, no options for headsets... but on the hungarian there are headsets, and on the english one too.
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/webcam_communications/internet_headsets_phones/&cl=gb,en
i think the problem is with updating the webpage.

yeah when u record its not good at all but when u talk on its better. büyük ihtimal windowsu türkçe kullanıyosundur
ses ayarlarına git sonra 'seçenekler'-'gelişmiş denetimlere' tıkla sonra mikrofona git altında 'gelişmiş' çıkacak ona tıkla ve açılan pencerede 'mikrofon arttırma' kutucuğunu işaretle kapat sonra yeniden test et micini
