If you've been wondering how hollow beads are done, here's a video tutorial. Unfortunately it's not in English, but it doesn't seem to matter. On this one they simply adorned it with a twistie.
Hollow beads are fun, you just need to make sure you don't have any holes or it will collapse. And, yes, they are quite strong due to the spherical shape, with the added advantage of being light.
If you haven't done one before, practice with some inexpensive clear or something you don't care about because you will most likely end up with a few globs before you get the hang of it.
