Can I Show You My House?

Source: andyabramson.blogs.com

The Wall Street Journal has a story on Webcams being used in inventive ways. One is to keep an eye on a person’s vacation home, another is tied to a home alarm system.

I’ve been doing something like that with the auto-answer feature of SightSpeed during the never ending phase of my house’s reconstruction. I simply left SightSpeed running on my living room Windows Media Center and as long as the contractors don’t turn power off to the house I’ve been able to keep an eye on the wall that will eventually become a door and lead to a new exterior deck.
