This post references the MetaCamPage, which was a running featurette of this website for several years. It's been offline for decades now, but originally it displayed a single snapshot taken at regular intervals from a webcam mounted to my computer's monitor. Although it sounds inconceivable, this was a very common practice around the turn of the century. (The MetaCamPage would also sometimes show webcam images from other bloggers' webcams and/or a grid of photos from other bloggers.)

my job is hardI am a big fan of clipping funny shots you might happen to catch on the MetaCamPage. Eventually there will be an archive of all the funny stuff. I already have several of the center girls (as I like to call them), Harlan, Meg, and — of course — everyone’s favorite monkey. Creative editing of webcam pics is not only allowed, but highly encouraged.
