Webcam bedtime stories



Although not why I originally bought a webcam, this seems to be a good idea as well...

From Kottke - A Story Before Bed allows you to record yourself reading a bedtime story to a faraway child...maybe you're away from home on business or a grandparent who lives in another state or just working late. When storytime rolls around, the child sees the book onscreen plus a video of you reading it to them.

if you record a few books you can start to set up a bookshelf that the child could access at any time...
