Welcome to RaviCam (Almost) Live!

He was once a 98 pound weakling who got sand kicked in his face. Now, he's overweight, stays off the beach, sleeps all day and codes all night. See the geek - up close and personal - on RaviCam Live.

Warning
Due to an unfortunate incident at the local SuperCuts (home of the $8.95 haircut), Ravi will be sporting the Dilbert look until his hair grows back. Any gray you see is purely a pigment of your imagination.

Want to set up your own webcam?

It's easy! Here's what you need:

A digital camera that can be controlled by your PC (I use the Intel PC Camera - read my review at Epinions). You can also use a video camera and a frame grabber, but that's more expensive.
A web site with FTP access. I rent space at Web66 and recommend them highly. You can get a personal web site for less than $11 per month. If you want your own domain name (like www.RaviB.com), you'll first need to register a domain with the Internic.
A program to capture and upload images at regular intervals. I use Bill Oatman's SpyCam. It's a great piece of shareware, well worth the $15 registration fee the author requests. If you end up using it, please register!
