Years have passed (4.5 to be exact) since the Gnome Cam began dutifully snapping captures of my porch at 5-minute intervals. Through those years, as the cam became a witness to history, I've had a frequent request for faster update times. The request usually goes something like: "That cam is super mega awesome, your porch is like happening central! I can't get enough of it! I need more than just 5-minute intervals of capture goodness!" to which I reply "Not even Stavos can convince me to up the capture time, friend." I was happy with this answer for almost 5 years, but lately I've begun to realize how important my porch is to humanity, and how selfish it is to only share 5 minute increments of it with the world. Thus, Gnome Cam Live is born. Because I'm a Microsoft zealot who hates all things non-Microsoft (or because Media Encoder comes free and I'm cheap) it only works for sure in Windows Media Player. Also, the timing of my live cam has nothing at all to do with the recent release of Duane's live cam.
