Room With a View
Starwood Hotels has an innovative new marketing site called roomwithaview.com. The site has links to live high quality cameras at their properties around the world. This is a neat idea although I’m having trouble using the site. For some reason I’m not able to click the individual properties within the map. I think a better interface would be something along the lines of the wall of tvs where you could see each view in a panel. The world map doesn’t highlight the visual appeal of a live image.
A sample from their Grand Maritian is below. This may be the first webcam in Mauritius.

Vancouver, British Columbia
Vancouver must have the best collection of high quality webcams of any city. The KatKam is an all-time favorite of mine. Other good cams include the Vancam and the KitsKam, which has a great archive. The image below is a recent sample from the archive.
The Westin Bayshore has a great new camera overlooking Stanley Park and Coal Harbor. A beautiful HD quality view of an HD worthy scene! Vancouver is an amazing city to visit and will be ready with live views for the Winter Olympics.
