The recent post in the Wikipedia community about the Trojan Room coffee pot got me thinking: are there any interesting webcams still running on the web? If so, do you have any favorites?
Aside from my local ski area I didn’t think I could name a single webcam still running.
Sure. I know like 5 in my city. One ontop of the main fire station, i think another one filming the inner city, several at a lake (which is a local recreation area). Someone used to capture his garden with a few trees and mostly the sky and clouds. And we used to have a bunch pointing at the traffic on the Autobahn, so you could watch traffic and brace for the ordeal before driving off to work. But they took the live feed down when the Russia/Ukraine war started. And of course ski resorts have them. You can turn on the TV and watch those ski resort webcams at like 6am on TV. Usually accompanied by some super annoying hillbilly music. 😆

I forgot about traffic cameras. My region’s highway department has webcams along the major mountain passes. This was good reminder; I will need to check them in a few weeks before I drive through the mountains!

This would actually be better than most of my local broadcast TV.

Oh, well. It’s certainly better than the following program. I believe it’s followed by the news and then some documentaries about nature and places around the world. The other channels go downhill fast. Some “breakfast” TV show with some poor souls who have to get up early to do some meaningless happy talking, recipes and maybe invite someone who once met a celebrity… Followed by a re-run of yesterday’s local news and other random stuff that’s cheap or still in the VHS deck… Idk. I suppose it’s meant for some 95yo bedridden grandmas who can’t escape. I believe no sane person with working limbs would turn on any broadcast TV in the morning.
