Data, data, data
I work in an office with no windows, so I rely on a couple of streaming webcams on my desktop to keep an eye on what’s going on outside downtown. One of those cameras was one I found through WTOP’s website, and linked to a camera showing a general view of the city which included [...]

snomg v 2.0
Most of you are probably hanging out at home today, or at least enjoying the snow (blizzard?) while it’s still snomg’ing outside. New photos of what’s going on out there, and a few from the last snowpocalypse… More later…
