| Title : Daily webcam movies
| Date : 30 Jul 09:07 PM
| Author: Daryl Herzmann

+----------------------------------------------
I have created a simple Flash based webcam lapse viewer. Each
day, each webcamera generates 5 pre-timed movies. The viewer
provides you with a simple interface to view these movies. You
will need to have a modern web browser and Flash 9 installed.

Some of you feed gempak formatted data from our department's
file server. This server was just updated to new hardware. If
you had noticed slowness in the past, give it a shot again. Please
let me know of any troubles.
