Introduction There are a lot of webcams on the
internet but it's really hard to find some good
cams. I have surfed the internet for a long time
now and I desided to share the best indoor,
outdoor and home webcams with you!

marvelous view of Los Angeles in the morning.
Really foggy, isn't it?

The Webcams
Webcams are not
as fast as beginners expect them, usually the
refresh time is 15 or 30 seconds (the time to wait for a new image), sometimes with a
nice countdown. The fastest cam I
have seen had a refresh rate within a second, cams
that are controllable by the user have often a really
good refresh rate (see the sydney cam below). The most
cams are outdoor webcams, they mostley have a
pretty view of the surrounding, sometimes they
have a special location like from a cafe on the
beach, in a taxi, in front of an eagles nest or a
view of a volcano! But mostley indoor cams are
the most addictive because you can have a look in
the lifes of others.
One of my favourites is the
strand cam of Hermosa beach California under the
outdoor cams section. There is always something
going on there. They have a huge archive of
pictures from the last 6 months! Below is a
snapshot of it:

Below is a snapshot of guy
that just woke up and already sits in front of
his computer, sad isn't it? (No, really! Well..
maybe not, no, nope .) Below is a
view of Sydney. You can control the live camera
yourself for a short period. You can rotate and
even zoom!
