A screenshot from the first (and sadly now defunct) webcam, a coffee pot monitoring device called “XCoffee” in the “Trojan Room” at the University of Cambridge. The webcam was initiated in 1991 and taken offline in 2001. The coffee pot was then restored by Krupps and then sold for the equivelant of $6,188.30 (£3,350).
