Lifehacker script to automate Project 365 with iSight-enabled Macs

Photojojo is a community focused on photography ti , tricks, DIY projects and other kinds of picture-taking goodne . Recently, they introduced Project 365, e entially coining a(nother?) term and offering ti for those take-a-picture-a-day-for-a-year-or-three projects that broke out on the interwe over the last year or so.

I ired both by this Photojojo post and the recent ' ap a pic of users who commit invalid login attempts' hack, Adam Pash at Lifehacker pe ed a Photo projects for the New Year post in which he put together a script that can automate this proce on iSight-enabled Macs, more or le taking the effort out of your own Project 365. The script can be set to run each time you login (properly, of course) or at a ecific time of each day, and Adam includes i tructio for tweaking them to your needs. By default, they're set up to ap the pic and save it in ~/project365/pics/, adding a timestamp to the name of each file to help you keep track of everything when you're ready to make your YouTube debut.

I think this is a fantastic idea, and now that I have an iSight in both my MacBook and iMac, I think I might actually take a crack at this myself. A big thanks to Adam for putting together such a cool script, and be sure to check out Photojojo's original Project 365 post for ti , motivation and ideas on what to do with 365 pictures of you and/or your stuff.
