Although I've never used my webcam, it is available on my laptop. I've never even clicked on the icon to see how to use it. So I was concerned this morning when I happened on this article about webcams:

Webcam Hackers Can Spy On You In Secret

So this is just a word to the wise.

I know I'm off to get a little piece of tape and stick it over that little web eye up there... it's really getting tricky these days to stay safe.

Cheers,

Bex

Just a couple of collie dogs we met in Grosmont, North Yorkshire, England one year while waiting for the train. Just look at those muddy paws! Must have been a wonderful "walkies" for them!

"The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog...

He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world...

When all other friends desert, he remains."
