I haz kittenz - watch them live here.

Hi,

I have been out most of the day. Glad the cam feed stayed up!

I am negotiating some bandwidth and a fast server at the moment.

Also there will be some "Poppy" merchandise which will support our local cats protection league.

Keep your eyes pealed for some updates soon.
 
It will go slow, patience is the key. How about I limit connections to 5 or so mins, before you have to come back?

If I get the big server sorted it will go faster.

Anyone want to be a "Friend of Poppy" and help out with the server stuff?

Currently have you got webcamXP installed onyour own home machine and what outgoing bandwidth have you got?

Where do you plan on hosting the server because remember even ifyou get a super server if you host it on just a broadband connection your bandwidth will be limited.

Are you on ADSL or Cable?

I am on Virgin 20Mb broadband. If I ftp the cam image to the server, won't that then handle the other connections?

Maybe Virgin should donate some speed for 5 weeks while they grow. At this rate we can't surf the net very well here!
 
lol ok FTPing the image to some server would be *** rather than hosting it as it's prolly the connections rather than bandwidth we're eating.
find a free host and point your URL at that! setup your webcam software to upload that image every 10-15 seconds or whatever and away you go!
not sure if thats the best way to do it but I know that was the only way when I used to have a webcam (ages ago)
