webcamS blog

Ok I know I know, it’s been forever since I’ve posted. I’m not going to promise I’ll keep posting as honestly I’m not sure if I have time to keep this thing running. I’m actually considering selling this domain as I’m just too busy with other projects.

That being said, I found something funny to share while surfing Youtube for anything webcam and interesting. Here is some girl messing with a Logitech QuickCam Orbit MP Webcam that has some effects that you might also find amusing. Here’s a pic of the cam:

And here’s the video off of Youtube where she shows some of the effects possible by this piece of hardware.

I’ve also installed this plugin that makes it easy for lazy bloggers to post/embed videos from Youtube and other video portals easily. I figure if I “DO” decide to keep this site I ought to make it easy to post some interesting stuff from time to time.

Anyways, hope you enjoy the vid.

PS: If you are interested in buying this domain (I also have webcamsforum.com available as a package) contact me by posting a comment on this thread with your contact info.

So it’s been forever since I’ve posted on this Webcams Blog. Resolution for 2007 is to ramp this back up with some quality posts and content.

Anyways, was browsing some webcams news and came across two somewhat related and interesting news stories on webcams.

The first one is about how Texas is spending some money setting up webcams to monitor it’s border, and although it’s only generated a handful of arrests they’re looking at expanding the effort. This will be an interesting issue to watch.

The other story I ran across that I thought was blog-worthy is one about a Brazilian man traveling in Germany that via his phone and home webcam (security) system averted his home from being burglarized.

I have mixed feelings about the use of webcams becoming more and more predominant. Although it’s nice to see them assisting in catching criminals, it’s very invasive in the way of presupposing crime is going to happen anywhere. I just never expected big brother or someone else to be watching our every move. It seems so spooky and very 1984′ish.

Well that’s all for now, take care and have a very Happy New Year! …and stay tuned we’ll keep this place updated a bit more often…

Hey there,

I just added 8 of the best webcams to the webcam hardware page. Let me know if there are some you’d like to see added. I’ll break down and type up or find review/links for these in the future. For now I just put some links up and where to buy them at Amazon.

If this area gets popular enough I might just dedicate a whole site to reviewing webcam hardware. I’ll check back in on this topic later on for sure. Personally I just used some cheap cam that I bought at either Circuit City or Best Buy… I don’t cam much, so it wasn’t a priority for me at the time. I’m more of a webcam watcher and fan than a webcam exhibitionist

Ok, enough chat for me. Yall have a good night and…
