UPDATE: THE MAGIC ROCK SNEEZECAM IS OVER.

Thanks to everybody who stopped by. The Magic Rocks were a little tricky to light, especially since the water was cloudy, but overall I think it went pretty well. I'll definitely try another webcam experiment in the near future.

I'll try to stitch the whole thing into a time-lapse movie sometime later in the week.

Today at 11 am PST (2 PM EST) I'll try to grow the Magic Rocks live via webcam.

I really don't know what to expect now because the back of the package said the rocks grow in 30 minutes and the pamphlet inside says it takes 6 hours, along with a bunch of other jibber jabber and extra instructions that were just getting on my nerves.

Nevertheless, I'll give it a shot. We'll consider it a test for future webcam experiments.

The Sneeze Cam can be found right here.

The webcam page will automatically refresh every 20 seconds. If you get a missing picture box at first, just try letting the page sit for a minute and see if it corrects itself.

It should go live at 11 AM PST. I may post an update or two about it here on the main page later today.
