Your favourite webcam?

I was just wondering what everyone's favourite webcam was.
Being interested in sciences of all kinds, my current favourite is the webcam at Kilauea's Pu'U O'o crater. For those who have not been following events there on a regular basis (you should at least remember the high lava fountains of the early 80's and the destruction of Kalapana - all world-wide news), there was an intrusion into the East Rift zone a few weeks ago robbing Pu'U O'o of its lava supply resulting in the crater floor dropping 100M (330'). In the last few days lava has returned creating an ever growing lava lake - I can't keep away from events there and the webcam says it all. If you also follow the links to Eruption Update > Pictures, you will see just how much it has grown in only a short time. Fascinating!

Find a site about something you are interested and see if there's a webcam 
Alternatively, Google is your friend Type in 'webcam volcanoes' and Pu'U O'o is on the first page along with many other interesting webcams.
Try one yourself

Mount St Helens Cam which had a minor eruption (the volcano, not the cam
) a few years ago, and was witnessed via the cam.Columbia River Gorge Cam which also has Mt. Hood in the background. Some spectacular sunsets can be seen on this cam.

Heh, me either. I came to this thread to mention that the Xbox Live Vision cam is quality bit of hardware. Oh well.
