Default Another quirky thing... Airport webcams...

Another (weird?) habit I sometimes have is watching live airport webcams... I've always loved watching those huge commercial planes take off! (To me, it's still a kind of miracle...)

I also like seeing the inside of airports, where possible... (I think I just like the feeling that I'm going somewhere...)

Anyway, here are a few of my favorites... (How good it is depends on the time of day, as these are live webcams... They're less interesting in the middle of the night, local time!)

Dusseldorf Airport, Germany (multiple cameras you can choose from)

Nagasaki Airport, Japan

Naha Airport, Japan

Miami Airport (good when it works, but doesn't always work)

There's even a website devoted to Airport webcams...

http://airportwebcams.net

Not sure if there is a good business angle here... Just thought I'd share, anyway...

When I watch, it's usually as "background" when I'm working... I have a (getting old) 27-inch iMac, so can fit the video/webcam into part of the (large) screen. I also sometimes work with 2 laptops (one is a very cheap one), and I sometimes run videos or webcams on the cheap laptop as "background scenery", while I work on the other one...

Best wishes,

Dien
