How do I reduce LCD camera glare when shooting pictures outside during midday?

I have a Kodak Easyshare camera and there isn't a setting for changing the screen brightness. When I shoot pictures outside during daylight, often I get a huge glare on the lcd screen. Often I have to take a picture and adjust the image after viewing the snapped photo.

The poor man's way to go is a baseball cap. Use the cap as a hood in one hand to shade the lcd while shooting. Use the other hand to shoot. This would be bad in low light situations, but that's typically not the case if you've got so much light that you cannot see the screen. Awkward, but somewhat effective.
