I honestly think this is a good idea.

I just wonder which kilt maker would do it. I know for certain, no doubt what so ever that it would increase sales. Especially if there were nekkid randy women as seamstresses.

All jokes aside, I think it would be rather painless and easy to set up with the right gear. I know only a little about Windows, I am more of a Mac OS / NIX nut, so when I say how easy it would be it would be for those types of systems.

I like web cams. And not the perverted ones. I like the ones set up in coffee shop windows that allow you to watch the people walking down the street or the ones that show parks, or even better, the ones you can tune in to during sun rise or sun set at famous locations.

If you had good hardware, and a high speed net connection, you could use a Mac and an iSight cam to actually stream live video at a good 30+ fps @640x480 from any website. It's a much cheaper solution with a better quality picture then most pro streaming solutions. It could easily be set up for under a grand. You would need at most, an eMac to use as a webcaster, and I know where to get one of those for about 500 bucks. Brand new. And an iSight cam. Just add the right scripts so the camera images constantly save to the web sharing folder and broadcast from any live IP. Everything should work perfectly right out of the box with nothing more to buy. At least I believe so. Macs come with everything you need to do this unless I am mistaken.
