    this is a very cool idea

    http://lifehacker.com/350647/diy-camera-stabilizer-on+the+cheap
    This video tutorial steps through how to build a very simple and cheap vertical camera stabilizer intended to reduce camera shake when you're shooting in conditions where a tripod just won't do (or, you know, you don't have a tripod). The stabilizer should work particularly well for shorter distance shots, but you'll notice more shaking the more zooming you do. In those cases, the tripod is still your best friend, but for a workable and cheap DIY, this is a great DIY tool.

    I've seen a version of this, where the string is long enough to pass under your foot, and back up to your hand. This means you can hold the camera at different heights, but maintain the tension in the cord.

    Clever idea.
