What is jennicam?

JenniCam was a website created by Jennifer Ringley in 1996 that featured a continuous live webcam feed of her daily life. The website gained popularity for its candid and unfiltered look into Ringley's life, as she broadcast everything from mundane daily activities to personal moments.

JenniCam was one of the first examples of a lifecasting website, where individuals would broadcast their lives in real-time for viewers to watch. Ringley's decision to share her life in such a public way sparked debate about privacy and technology, and she became a controversial figure in the early days of the internet.

The website ran for seven years, from 1996 to 2003, before Ringley decided to shut it down and move on from the project. Despite its controversial nature, JenniCam is remembered as a pioneering example of the possibilities of live streaming and internet fame.
