I got an awesome puppy/security cam for only $4.99!

When my husband and I go to dinner, movies, etc., I always worry if Toby is doing ok. My problem is solved! I just downloaded an app for my computers and iPhone/iPad that works as a "doggy cam" (as well as security cam). See: http://www.eyespyfx.com/mywebcam.html 

The application that installs on the computers/cams is free, the one for the iPad/iPhone is $4.99 (once you install it on one of these devices, it will install on the other one for free). What's nice is that you can set it up on multiple computers/cameras throughout the house.

I just installed it gave it a test run. WOW! It works GREAT! I set my laptop on the coffee table in my living room and faced it towards my hallway (that has a door to my garage) where I think Toby lays down until we get home. The visibility on my iPhone/iPad is fantastic! I can hardly wait to go out now for a couple hours and test it out!!! 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to UN-CLICK the buttons for "Show in Live List" and "Display Thumbnail"and CLICK the button for Password Protect. This way you - and only you - have access to seeing what the camera is broadcasting!  

BTW, don't forget to disable the "energy saver/sleep" feature on your computers/cams - before you go out - lol!

Adina's husband, Clark, told me they use YawCam and it's FREE! What's great is that you can watch it from any computer/smartphone with a browser. (The cam has to be on a Windows system.): http://www.yawcam.com/

You can buy a camera pretty cheap and maybe install it that way.... I may do that.

[Linda and "Toby"]

Yes, you can get webcams really cheap these days!

I forgot to put the URL on there! I just added it so no one will go to an adult site by mistake! eek!

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

That looks brilliant.  I'm definitely getting that app, thanks for sharing this.

I tried out the webcam today when I went to my hair appt. It works! Hooray! What's cool is that you can even take "snapshots" and it saves them in your Photos folder. (Iimagine if you saw a burglar in your house and could snap a photo of him/her!)

AWESOME! I've been thinking of buying an iphone and now I think i have the motivation to splurge on it. That's really cool!

[Linda and "Toby"]

Yes! You should get one! I LOVE my iPhone so much, I can't imagine being about without it. (I'm such a nerd. lol!) Aside from all the amazing apps that you can run on it (my friends and I video chat all the time using the Skype app), the camera/video cam on it is surprisingly good. Here's a video (posted on my blog) that my son made with his iPhone when he went to New York a few months ago: http://labellgallery.com/2011/04/iphone-4-video-new-york-trip- (He sped it up and edited it in using Adobe After Effects.)
