Let’s talk webcams… combined, Jess and I have 5 webcams. Why so many? Well after buying our own, we somehow got a bunch of free ones. They used to be used a lot, since Jess and I didn’t live together, but now that we do, they’re rarely on. So I had a thought… why not make a streaming webcam of my fishtank (and if that doesn’t work, maybe an image that updates every 5-10 seconds or so)? I figure it would be a nice addition to the rest of the site, but I have never set one up before.
So, what to do? Well, I’ve downloaded YawCam… it seems to have all the features I need to pull this off. Next I need to setup my cam (just on my desk) and see if I can get it to work. I figure I’ll use my nice Logitech to do this. If it works, the next step (pending approval from Jess) is setting up the cam on the fishtank somewhere, and finally, putting an active link here on the site.
So… would you guys tune into Fishies Gone Wild? Drop a comment, let me know what you think!
