Date-Time / Prefix Comment What? A collection of Blackboard Shots (7449, right now, with 198 prefixes), mostly taken in my office using a ceiling-mounted web camera.

Why? Mostly for my own use and for the use of the other people with whom I share blackboard space. And it is public because the easiest way to make something viewable to a number of people is to make it viewable to the whole world.

Oh no! If you found your handwriting here and you don't like it, please let me know and the relevant shot(s) will be removed, no questions asked.

How? A ceiling-mounted Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 web camera is permanently pointed at my blackboard and connected via USB to this web server. The script bbs.php initiates a capture (using luvcview; hit "s" to shoot and "q" to quit), prompts for a file name prefix and a comment, and runs make. The makefile runs MakeDatabase.php (if necessary) to update the ShotDatabase.php. The latter file is used by index.php, which is this page, and also by show.php, used to display individual shots. The makefile also updates bbs.zip, which contains all the above mentioned scripts as well as common.php, showprefix.php, loadnew.php, random.php, the JavaScript actions.js, and the icon bbs.jpg. Finally, $\TeX$-like rendering uses MathJax (automatic on all pages but this one).

Exceptions. Some shots are taken by other means and are added manually or using loadnew.php.
