Remote Sensing

Finally, a use for internet on phones! As i have 1mb a month free (useless for general browsing) i was wondering what i could do with it, and then it came to me, webcams in aber! except i had a few problems. if i load into the browser, the address of the image alone;

http://www.ceredigion.gov.uk/english/visiting/
aber_webcam/img/promenade.jpg

it is saved in the cache of the phone and i cant refresh it! however, if i load the entire web page it uses the entire limit in one go!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/mid//sites/surfing/pages/abercam.shtml

SO i decided to make my own!

http://users.aber.ac.uk/ojr4/abercams.htm

2kb to load, so it only costs about 3p a time, and its refreshable. as well as the Aber page there is also one for Snowdon and Shrewsbury

damn im sad.
