Talk of the Point

Zoom goes London, zoom Paree

What’s going on here? London and Amsterdam have web cams, those cameras that beam nearly real-time images into browsers. See the nice people on the sidewalk, see the nice trams. Paris has one, too, inside a cafe and in live action. See the nice people turn pages of French newspapers.
When I stop work late, late at night, I like to take a moment to enjoy the noon-time sun. I have found other web cams in Florence, Palermo, Yosemite, New York, San Francisco…just about everywhere but Point Richmond.

Correspondent Andrew Butt is looking into setting one up in a downstairs window at Interactive Resources.
