Historically, IP Cameras have been *focused* on monitor and surveillance, and locked down for the people who are designated to monitor them. I personally think this is about to change, because that's only ONE application, and there are both millions of things people want to watch things, and millions that people want to show things.
Presenting the OPEN IP Camera, which is, in short, a camera with no password protection, or perhaps one with a known, public password. Although technically the latter would not be open per se, but it sort of fits the definition of being open.
Your IP camera is on your walkway to your door? OK, maybe that's not a great candidate for an OPEN IP camera. What about an IP Camera on Mount Rushmore? An active bird's nest? Jackson Hole?
But wait.. You don't have to live in a historic or scenic area to offer up some interesting cam shots. How about your AQUARIUM? Your garden? Your shop?
Surprisingly there are few sites with OPEN IP camera links. I plan to start one on ipcameras.us soon. Be part of the revolution and all!
So there you have it, not much else to say on this topic, share your thoughts?
