Webcam

Emma's webcam is now operational. I am using webcamXP 5 [free!] to make HTTP POST calls to upload images. At present, the server will store only the most recent image, so don't expect a log. It is updated once every hour. I may enable serving the most recent 24 hours, but that functionality will not come online today.

I used a PHP script on the server to receive the files and authenticate the poster. If you guessed the passphrase and spoofed our IP address, I guess you could upload an image of a giant eyeball and it would appear on our webcam page.

Here it is. Bookmark this:

Note the billboard between the Viewpoint and the T-Mobile sales office. The nude male ad has been replaced for an ad for The Mighty Boosh on Adult Swim.
