Whoa... a Logitech Webcam that can pan and tilt via software controls... Cool. Saw it for sale on www.ableshoppers.com

Hahaha... Oh yeah.

I had figured out how to broadcast my cam to the web, and would use it as a remote security cam... Would turn it on from work and would generally see the empty room... But, one day I fired it up at work and nearly crapped when I saw someone sitting at my desk!! Yikes

Then I realized that someone was actually me... Laughing

When you turn the camera off, which I had that morning before leaving, it caches the last image captured and displays that as a static image on the web...

Bwahahaha... I was scared for a couple seconds... I think I actually called over to fb in his cubicle before I realized what I was looking at!!

haha. That's funny. Those can really make a good security system though! Especialy if you setup something that automatically dials 911 from your house and says an automated voice message to the operator. You make it so you can hear it dial and hear the message, that would scare the crap out of any robber. To make the system even more cool, you add features that automaticly lock the doors of the room so the robber is stuck in the room. A switch on the outside would open the door once the cops get there.

Totally cost for this security system: 2 visas (1 maxed out, the other to try and pay the maxed out one)

fb told me about this, and nearly pissed in my pants. we had a cam set up at my old office, to view lights on this system. well make a long story short some guy cam by the night to show off his tools to his lady friend and forgot about the cam. felt like the guys in american pie, calling around to let everyone know.
