Beauty on Mercury

I love their Botox faces.

Shaky put that cam up just in time!

Jim P and Carrie did the lion's share of the work installing the camera after Kenn had assembled it. I spent most of my time inside the noisy, grimy machine room pulling cables and reconfiguring the computers and video equipment.

I just saw that cam #1 shows old october picture.

Fixed.

In case you haven't seen it, the new streaming video page is now featuring 2 video streams from the Times Square Building with a social stream (chat) directly below them. Main Camera is on stream 1, and Cameras 1-4 are on stream 2.

Has the black thingamajig always been there?  I don't recall ever seeing it before...

It's been there since October 17. It's an IR video camera that provides streaming video at night for Main Camera when it is too dark for capturing video with the Canon G10 camera, the camera that provides us with the high quality still pictures and daytime video for Main Camera.

I see the new cam has our web address embedded...cool!

That's temporary. We really don't want anything obscuring the picture.

We finally got a picture of Beauty on Mercury!

Congrats on your first post, marcoon. I think you are describing the smoke stack at Village Gate. It's not very far from Downtown. Beauty could have stopped by.

We're back! All 6 cameras are working.

And we are streaming all 5 cameras at Times Square.

Just in from YouTube:

"Congratulations! Your account is now enabled for uploads longer than 15 minutes."

YouTube has recognized Rfalconcam as a good video citizen. Now we should be able to upload to YouTube all those mega-hour streams on Ustream.

I can't wait to see Brian's 4-hour version of the Falcon Dance. Do the bird!

OK, so now we need to mount a tripod in the bed of your pickup and set you up with a motor drive mount on the scope with video feed to a dashboard cam with a joystick to point the scope. Then add a mobile Internet connection for video streaming.

It will be like that African Safari site on wildearth.tv except in it will be in Rochester.

Can you do an Afrikaner accent?

Just a reminder that the cameras will be down this afternoon.

Let's put the pepsi challenge link in our sigs so people are more likely to click on it.
