Hello,
My dog will be having a litter of puppies & I want to set up a dedicated web cam so that the puppy parents can watch them at any time & so that I can keep an eye on them from the other room. I have an old computer that I can dedicate to the project. I have used it before but don't remember how to do it. I'm kind of a non tech so could someone give me a step by step description of how set this up? Pls start wi what program to use, then describe in kindergarten language. thx Inventing Joy

One more thot. If you have a suggestion for something I should purchase that would make this a better experience for my viewers, I am willing to consider buying it if it isn't too expensive. I'm open to all ideas & suggestions.

Hi , I have a Microsoft web cam with a built in microphone. If possible, I would like several people who are watching to be able to chat with each other & wi me. Is this possible? I was thinking skype. Can that be done on skype? If so, how? or is there a better program to use? I have a sony handycam camcorder. Would it be a good idea to incorporate that? I also have a very old, big camera. Its in the garage. I'll get it later. I'm thinking of it bcs the computer is old & I think too new equipment may not work on it but I don't know. I did hook something up abut 2 years ago but I don't remember what or how. Also, I think a tech hooked it up so I didn't even know how it was done. But it did work with that same, old computer. I don't recall if the image was kind of delayed or if it is as good as we get now. Kind of in real time without delay if you get what I mean. Not being a tech, I dont really have the right language to describe what I'm trying to say. Pls correct me & teach me so that I can better express it. Thanks so much for helping me. I really appreciate it. Puppy love from INventing Joy & the Furry folk
