Some Interesting and (maybe) Useful Links -

Over the many years (some might argue too many) I've been online, I've collected a few interesting links.  One that I used at class on Monday was from CalTrans.
CalTrans has installed some webcams on the major roads through the state, from Stockton to San Diego.  They are free for the viewing.

Ever hear sirens and wonder, "Where are they going?"  From here, you can check out incidents for SLO County Fire and CalFire.  The will tell you where, when and what the call was about, but will not show personal information or what happened after the call.

Ever wonder what's going on outside of the Abbey Road studios?  Me too, all the time.  Well, they put up a webcam on the sidewalk that views the famous "zebra crossing" from the album cover.  Online 24 hours, the time difference is fun to see and you might catch a glimpse of some exotic car cruising by or tourists waving at the camera.
