http://tlrobinson.net/bigbrother [warning: very bandwidth + CPU intensive, but worth it]

A few weeks ago I scraped the results from one of these searches (using Yahoo BOSS). This page shows the live streams of a random subset of them. Scroll to see more.

"These are live video feeds from 325 unprotected Panasonic Network Cameras..."

This one is very funny: http://212.248.100.101:89/ViewerFrame?Mode=Motion&Langua...

Could you geolocate the IPs in the scrape and then overlay them on top of a Google Maps API? That'd be a bit more useful: security cameras in your neighborhood.

Interesting idea. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.

Here's the list of camera domains/IPs http://tlrobinson.net/bigbrother/urls.txt and the paths to the viewer page and MJPEG, respectively:

    a.href = baseURL + "ViewerFrame?Mode=Motion&Language=0";
    img.src = baseURL + "nphMotionJpeg?Resolution=160x120&Quality=Standard";

Dang, I didn't see your post, but it would have saved me a lot of work.

Just whipped this up last night... Here are all of the Webcams from a yahoo search up to 1000th result Geolocated:

Interesting... but the bandwidth saturation detracts from the impact. Paginate?

I've spent enough time working on this thing :)

Make your window smaller and reload. It will only show as many cameras as will fill the page. Refresh to get a new random set.

Aha. So by scrolling down to find the 'end' I made it worse. Thanks for the tip.

That's badass!
