Waking up with Africa...

Click here if you are using a MAC. You'll need to have realplayer installed to view this content.




It's quite nice to view this in full-screen mode (play around with your realplayer). The best time to "tune-in" would be early in the mornings, Africa time. National Geographic are the guys facilitating this wildcam.

This pond is situated in Botswana and the area looks a wee bit dry. They've hired someone to operate the camera all day long. I think this concept has a lot of potential - especially once the end-user has the option of taking full controll of the camera!

Wow, man.

You do post some interesting stuff here!
It feels great to watch those cams, imagining that you are there...
However, how do they locate them? They should keep them as little disruptive as possible to their surroundings; well, I guess that's their idea, really.
Anyway, cool to watch. Too bad that my connection at home is still a dial-up; I can only watch it from the university...

Well, Franz, see ya around!
