Ahh, the Commons Cam.  What would we do without our frivolous little mental-health-preserving project?  If you’ve noticed a lack of posting here at the Red Frog Blog, it’s because we’ve been busy.  Really busy.  Brains-on-wall busy.  And with all manner of projects, print, web, application development, you name it, we’ve done it in the past month.

So with a new, amazing, beautiful, slick version of WebTree coming out sometime next week, I took a short break from application development today to play with our Commons Cam site, and added a cool new feature.

It’s called a visual time stamp.  Any time someone makes a comment on the site, the system now automatically saves a copy of the webcam’s view.  That way you can see what the hell someone was commenting about, or you can comment when you see a particularly pretty view, or a particularly strange one.

So go ahead and visit the Commons Cam and let us know what you see.  And perhaps share it with some friends?

Enjoy!
