The pastlife of webcams

I'm in bed right now. I could point a camera at myself if I was a cam whore but I'm not. Not anymore.

It's funny because having a webcam was all the rage like ten years ago. To me it seems like that's not the case anymore.

I remember getting my first one in my Windows days and just how much trouble I had getting the damn thing working. I paid over $100 for it. Kinda like how I paid out the nostrils for Apple's iSight. You know the detachable one which I miss. I still use it as a microphone. For idioPod even.

Funny how ten years ago (probably before now I think about it) I didn't do much naughty stuff using it. I'll admit I DID but not much. I did use it to draw attention to my website but that's it.

Webcams for me these days have lost their fun. I can barely look at myself let alone let dozens look at me.

Will the cam return as a novelty device? Maybe. Or have I stopped caring completely? Probably.
