Do You Have a Webcam?

Elspode · 12-01-2008, 06:01 PM

And if so, do you have an interest in someone putting together a Cellar video chat group?

Talk among yourselves.

lumberjim · 12-01-2008, 06:09 PM

I'd like to see people, but I don't know that anyone would want to see my big ole head glaring back at em.

SteveDallas · 12-01-2008, 08:35 PM

I've got an old one somewhere, but I don't have a good way to mount it on my laptop. I ought to just get another one with a mount, but I'm too cheap.

Bullitt · 12-01-2008, 08:47 PM

Have one built into the notebook, never use it. Heard Stickam.com is a good video chat site where you can setup your own rooms, etc.

LabRat · 12-02-2008, 08:03 AM

I don't have a webcam, and no plans to get one anytime soon, so I'd feel left out if there was one. That makes me want to vote no. But for those that have one, it would be a lot of fun, especially on drunk chat nights. So, yes then. But would it be a lot of work for UT? Then no.

I'm such a waffler...

Sundae · 12-02-2008, 08:23 AM

Voted Yes because I have one built into my laptop.
But rarely chat because I'm in the wrong time zone.
And my parents don't have a wireless hub, so I won't be doing it from here.

So that's effectively a no.

And I think you owe me a PM?

Flint · 12-02-2008, 08:58 AM

Let's set up a naked chat room.

Pro versus Con. I can't think of any Cons.

lumberjim · 12-02-2008, 09:20 AM

CON: the screenshot

Flint · 12-02-2008, 09:21 AM

So?

Cicero · 12-02-2008, 09:22 AM

Yea. That would be cool. If it were chat where vid was optional. I'm losing wireless at home for awhile until I can get a connection at the new place. Let's talk about it.

LabRat · 12-02-2008, 09:24 AM

Maybe we could get a bulk rate discount on these personalized for all the participating chatters?

And for those of you overacheivers, there are these that even cover the case!

Cicero · 12-02-2008, 09:26 AM

This reminds me. Vid. for labrat should be mandatory and not an option.

LabRat · 12-02-2008, 09:27 AM

maybe my SS should get me a webcam then

Flint · 12-02-2008, 09:32 AM

I like where this is going.

glatt · 12-02-2008, 10:52 AM

I'm not much of a chatter, and can't imagine I'd do it if there were web cams either. But don't let that stop you guys.

I'm posting just to point out that woot.com is having a special today on webcams. Two for $18 (shipping included.) If you are not familiar with Woot, they sell one item a day. So tomorrow, these guys won't be for sale any more. You could get the two, keep one, and send one to LabRat.
