Webcam Bilbao

2 September 2008 18:29 PM CET | Last modified: 18:48 | By Peter Doggers  | Filed under: Reports | Tags:

Like the spectators, the journalists are working right in front of the glass cube in Bilbao. As I happen to have a webcam with me, why not use it?

The webcam is quietly sitting next to me, just two meters from the glass cube, and just four meters from Anand-Ivanchuk. If the tournament is coming with all those novelties, ChessVibes should do the same, right? ;-)

    At least the stream has a good frame rate. Thanks for this :-)

    sorry peter. But your desire to bring news should not lead to this kind of things. This webcam has no use at all. Bring good stuff or nothing. ps: Love this site.

    perhaps you’re right, I was just excited being here and wanted to show others. besides, the webcam of the official site doesn’t seem to work.

    Coolness, it feels a little bit like I’m actually there

    The broadcastin privided by Chessvibes is more stable than the oficial web site. There is no live chessboard to falow the games in the oficial web site.

    After the coup of a6 Carlsen, I like the coup g4, why? Because I do not GM, LOL …. but I think it is playable ..
