Webcam appreciation thread
Posted: Sun Dec 16, 2007 6:08 pm
It seems that most of us take the webcams for granted. It is only when they go down that we really appreciate them. I also think that they will not be around forever, so we should do as much as we can NOW to thank the hosts and show our appeciation. Based on an idea by Morewind, it would be nice if we could send some feedback to the webcam hosts and to the people that keep them running. I'm not sure what the best way of doing this is - maybe thank you cards or something? I am open to suggestions here. It's not really enough to thank them here since most of them don't read the website.
Even though most of the webcam hosts get money from me to pay their internet, they still have to take calls/emails when the cams go down and they have to live with a webcam in their houses. None of the hosts are sailors either.
Here is a list of the people that should be thanked. I can give mailing addresses out if people want to send thank you cards, or should I post addresses here? I know a lot of people use the webcams and only a small number actually thank those involved:
1. Jack and Kathy: Gordon's webcam and weather station. I give them NO money for their internet so they should get special thanks.
2. Betty: CB weather station and webcam. Betty has to deal with frequent calls about webcam problems.
3. Mattdog: for keeping the CB gear going.
4. Alex: Cook Street webcam
5. Matt and Nicole: IV webcam.
6. George: Willows Beach webcam.
7. John: Pipers webcam.
8. Lynda V. and Ray Vanderbyl: San Pareil Webcam
