Mt wilson towercam as desktop image! (Live!)
Posted: Fri May 20, 2011 2:34 pm
I finally figured out how to set a webcam image (in this case the towercam) to be my desktop image, and have it refresh throughout the day. I created an automator script that gets the image, sets it as the desktop image, pauses for 5 minutes, then loops and does it again.
Now at work (in a windowless room), I can see the passage of daylight over the San Gabriels. This makes me a happy worker!
SO, this will only work on a Mac though - have no idea how you'd do it on a PC. Anyone who wants to try it can PM me, and I'll email you the Automator script.
Fun!
