How do I put a live webcam on one of my site's pages? I thought it would be easy but searching for it brings up all kinds of confusing stuff. :)

you need a more advanced webcam...

you use this to set up a server and then connect to it through the internet, alot of ISPs won't like you doing this

you'll also need to open/forward ports on your router

if your really desperate for "live" stream from your webcam.

Windows Media Player 9 Encoder

you just select your source as your webcam, setup a streaming server, and connect to the port via windows media player.
