Webcam

[random_ski_guy]

This year I am a little late, because every fall I usually whine about Sugarbush not having a webcam. So here goes; Win, how about a sweet set of web cams like they have at Telluride in the link below. They have scattered six or seven cams across the mountain (not just at base areas). Now webcams aren't anything new of course. But these have something different; a nifty timelapse feature that allows one to see the past 24 hours at hyper speed, about 30 seconds or so. Its a heck of a lot of fun to see the day go by at your favorite mtn in 30 seconds. I encourage you to check out this web technology as its actually cooler than it sounds. Currently, I am forced to go elsewhere for my virtual skiing when I'd rather be here.

The CEO blog is darn cool too, particularly witness the CEO's endless patience in answering all blog posts.

PS - shame on me for bringing this up on the eve of a storm.

Ah the great Webcam Debate thread of '08. Pontificate all you want there is snow on the way. I'll see you all at 7:45 on saturday waiting for the SB to turn. Too bad I scheduled my office holiday party tomorrow or I'd drive up tonight. I'm pumped.

Thanks guys.

Eh, its not really a debate or much of a thread at this stage anymore, just a lonely appeal. I should have rabble-roused back in October when anticipation for the upcoming ski season is at its highest. With the storm here, my plea has been washed out in white. Anywho, cheers to the storm. I'll bring up the web cams issue again on a rainy day.

If I ever get slopeside property, I'll set up the cam we (some of us) are clamoring for.
