Lens cap

The Logitech Quickcam pro 5000 has a flip-over lens cap, one of the reasons I purchased it. Not sure about the others though.

The iSight is a good start...

... and I thank you both for bringing it to my attention, but what about the rest? This really should be a standard feature.

Nonetheless, I'll update the entry.

Lens Caps

The iSight has a built-in shutter in front of the lens that is manually controlled. When closed it is white and stands out so that you know it is in place.

They do come with caps!

Apple's iSight has a iris over the lens - twist the top, and it closes the lens!

Interview with a Link Spammer

The Register is running an article containing an interview with a link spammer. They kindly make this person anonymous, and imply that there's really only 8 or so of them responsible for all this grief.

So... do we have anyone willing to get into the business long enough to identify these guys?
