FogCam

Summary

FogCam is the longest-running webcam in the world, barring maintenance breaks and camera replacements. First set up in 1994 by two students, Jeff Schwartz and Dan Wong, it captures the scenery of the San Francisco State University and uploads it to a dedicated website. It was nearly shut down in 2019 as the creators said they faced difficulties in maintaining the webcam. Following public outcry, the university agreed to take over ownership and continue its maintenance.
