I'm in the market for a non-skeezy, community-oriented webcam hosting site. I'm pretty sure I came across such a thing several weeks ago but have no idea how to go about tracking it down again.
Bear with me, this might be a little vague:
What I recall of the site I stumbled across is browsing through several pages with thumbnail views of webcams, all featuring people - no backyard monitoring systems, no street views documenting traffic patterns, no chicken coops - but none evidently adult oriented. Clicking on a thumbnail brought you to that webcam's main page, which featured a video (on or offline) and a chat box (this may have been optional, but was part of at least two or three of the webcam pages I found), and also possibly a comments/guestbook field. There was no apparent requirement to register in order to use the chat boxes, and there was certainly no need to sign up to view the webcams, as I was browsing without taking any action to identify myself.
I seem to also recall that the default color scheme for the cam pages was black (this may just have been for one webcam though), and it looked pretty slick - kind of social networking site oriented. The main feel that I got from this website was that it was there to connect people to people, much like Facebook or MySpace, but with webcams.
Please help me track this, or a similar site, down! Here are a few specs I'm looking for in a webcam hosting site, even if no one can track down the exact one I dug up the other week:
- no registration required for viewers
- some attention paid to design appeal
- the more web 2.0, the better
- nobody taking their pants off. I have no interest in being a cam girl, or being treated like a potential cam girl, so the less this is a pervasive theme on the site, the better.
- it'd also be great if I had the ability to somehow make it password-protected, but I realize I may just be dreaming now.
So... I'm not dreaming this ALL up, am I?
