I guess that could be a use case, but it's much simpler than that. Seems pretty neat.
- pavel_lishin 7y agoSomething like that would be tremendously useful when you're one person who's WFH. It would be nice to take a glance at the office webcam, and see if my coworkers are actually at their desks before pinging them a question - otherwise, I'm not sure if they're about to respond, or busy away from their desk, etc.
- drpancake 7y agoCould you imagine using the current feature set to do this? Is there anything missing?
- pavel_lishin 7y agoI think you'd have to have a dedicated machine with a camera for this; otherwise, you'd have to ask one of your coworkers to basically be constantly on-camera for you. That's not a limitation of the service, though.
- drpancake 7y agoRight, there are a number of tools like that including the (now defunct) Sqwiggle. My goal was to create something simple to fit a few use cases and see what people do with it.
