This is fascinating. The team at Fox Chicago wondered what it would be like if users were able to see the same live satellite feeds as they see at the station. So they built LiveNewsCameras.com — a compilation of Fox affiliate feeds across the country. The site even has a live moderator, Kat Bockli, who explains what’s happening and what’s coming up. And they’re sending out text alerts of upcoming events via Twitter, which is integrated into the right column. “We are aggregating all the live feeds we can get,” said News Director Andrew Finlayson. “We think of this as an experiment on many levels.” It’s a “terrific concept,” explains Anthony Moor, who punched up the site during Super Tuesday. “And they did it in three weeks.”http://www.lostremote.com/2008/02/06/livenewscamerascom-aggregates-live-fox-feeds/
