Web camera in the PC workshop?.

#1 Post by SEE YA » Thu Apr 21, 2011 6:39 am

Just an idea how about a web camera, in the workshop so we can all see the projects being worked on at certain times.


You could post updates for people to log on to view certain events on a project. eg removing of an engine etc.

Sounds a good idea - lots of radio stations have that on their websites, and it would be much more interesting to watch the PC crew working away - (Or if it's john simpson, making tea :P )

I don't just make the tea you know, although I am rather good at it :D
A webcam? I don't know about that, what about all the bad language, who would censor it?

I think that normally they don't have sound; and if it had a slow frame rate then each day could be compressed into a video a couple of minutes long - making everything look cool ;)

I know you don't just make tea John

The PC webcam could have a slight delay,and when there is unladylike language the noise of an A-series could be dubbed over ? :idea:

A bit like Big Brother did with the chickens.
