Webcam wastes away hours for fans

When St. John Spice installed a new Webcam pointed at the ferry dock, owners Ruth Ernst and Ron Piccinin had no way of knowing how hugely popular it would become.

Check out these numbers. The camera gets an average of 2,100 unique visitors a day, who spend (are you ready for this?) an average of 59 minutes per visit. Good golly, there are very few Websites in the world that keep people around for an hour at a time.

Viewers are heavily concentrated in the Northeast, followed by Florida and there is even a handful every day of folks right on St. John looking.

More stats: Tuesday and Wednesday are the busiest days. 10 am and 4 pm are the busiest hours. There are 581,000 images viewed per week. That’s incredible. This camera is seriously eroding worker productivity in America.

“Travelers to St. John are not your average tourists,” says Ben Chill who installed the equipment for St. John Spice. “They devour anything St. John and Ruth is delivering a live piece of Cruz Bay to get them through the times they have to sit at a desk and dream.”

The StJohnSpiceCam also made EarthCam’s Top 10 list this week.

“At least a half dozen people a day come into the store and tell us how much they enjoy the Webcam, and we get several emails a day,” says Ruth.

This is an upgrade from the previous ferry dock Webcam, which was also installed on the St. John Spice building but not controlled by Ruth and Ron. The greatly improved image also refreshes much more frequently, every 20 seconds.

“You get to see all sorts on that camera,” says Ruth. “Brides and grooms, tourists waving to their families, and my favorite, a guy one day that just decided the dock was a good place for a nap.”

I would love to see some of the “greatest hits” from the webcam – the funny, the silly, the weird, the sad, the WTF? shots….

Ruth -
What an inspiration! There is nothing better than to wake up and view what we are missing. Unfortunately, we won’t be visiting St. John this year – first time in 21 years. I blog almost every morning before work. A great way to start the day!

Thanks!

I am so happy to see this webcam! Every day I log in from Maine to check out On St. John and I used to go to GoToStJohn for that webcam – which has been out of commission for several months.

With the below freezing temps we’ve been having, it’s a treat to see blue sky & blue water and know it’s just a plane ride away….

22,184 visitors as of 7:22 AM EST. Boston is having a slight warm-up today but this camera brings me to where I long to be. Ruth, THANK-YOU for this wonderful service and your Cruz Bay Grill Rub. See you in March.

PS: I am afraid to tell you how long I view each day…..

I LOVE this webcam – it is the first website I go to when I get on my computer (at work no doubt – this is the second website I check) in the morning and I check it all day long – wishin I was one of the people getting off of the ferry! When it is 0* here in Illinois, I look at the dock and get warmed instantly – if only in my mind.

How about is they put another webcam on the other side of the building looking into the park – that could be fun!!!!!

You guys are doing great – keep up the good work

The webcam is part of my routine every morning when I get to work. Webcam first, then “On St. John.” Of course on really cold days (we haven’t been above freezing in over a week) and rainy or snowy days I check back to the webcam in the afternoon just to see some sunshine.

Mr. Chill is right. I can’t get enough of St John. I measure time by how long it is until I return. It’s been 213 days since I left St John and 133 days until I’ll be back

Thank you for helping me get through these Pittsburgh Winters and the rest of the year for that matter.

There used to be a streaming webcam on the top of the La Concha Hotel in Key West, at my previous employer, I would have that page running while I worked…so I would ask…why ONLY 59 minutes???! I see tropical webcams as productivity “increasers” work harder, make a little more money, get to St. John a little sooner!!!!

That dock just looked so much more comfortable compared to that soft beach sand I couldn’t resist…oh wait, that guy has hair and is in shape…so that must not be me…..

Of course, then they wish they never asked because I spend the next several minutes talking about SJ.

By the way…is the “Cold in USA. Come to St. John.” written in the sand on the webcam today part of the new tourism campaign? That’s motivating me more than the one on the updated website.

My wife took a screenshot of the old cam just before Jan Kinder, Bill Stelzer and I went to St Thomas to meet with the education commissioner. Those are OLPC laptops we’re holding.

Regarding the stats, the page auto-loads, so it’ll register as a page view even if no one’s at the computer. My guess is that many people leave it for days, driving the average up.

Also, all AOL users are “from” Vienna Virginia from a stats point of view.

One cold rainy Seattle Monday in January I was looking on line & found this great web cam. I walked out of my office & told my husband, “we haven’t been to the Caribbean for 6 years & we need to go this year”, he saw the site & said “sign me up”.

The site inspired us to book a cruise & we will be visiting you there sometime in November. Thank you for the sunshine & the messages that people write in the sand.

I LOVE this webcam. I check it several times a day. My husband and I were visited St John last year and vow that it will be our retirement home. Can’t make it down this year but we are already planning next year’s trip.

Thanks Ron and Ruth for the kindness. I visit every day! Barb Y February 3rd, 2009 08:31 42 I don’t know what I would do without it! I would probably go through some severe withdrawals. Thanks Ruth and Ron! Cas February 5th, 2009 16:10 43 Yes- I track webcam regularly also. Love it! By the way…is the “Cold in USA. Come to St. John.” written in the sand on the webcam today part of the new tourism campaign? That’s motivating me more than the one on the updated website. Carrianne February 6th, 2009 09:01 44 78 days to go! I was watching the webcam on inauguration day and someone wrote OBAMA in the sand. It is now my desktop picture. It is really cool, Obama in paradise, one of those once in a lifetime pictures! teefal February 27th, 2009 22:36 45 My wife took a screenshot of the old cam just before Jan Kinder, Bill Stelzer and I went to St Thomas to meet with the education commissioner. Those are OLPC laptops we’re holding. Regarding the stats, the page auto-loads, so it’ll register as a page view even if no one’s at the computer. My guess is that many people leave it for days, driving the average up. Also, all AOL users are “from” Vienna Virginia from a stats point of view. Tracy October 14th, 2009 10:43 46 One cold rainy Seattle Monday in January I was looking on line & found this great web cam. I walked out of my office & told my husband, “we haven’t been to the Caribbean for 6 years & we need to go this year”, he saw the site & said “sign me up”. The site inspired us to book a cruise & we will be visiting you there sometime in November. Thank you for the sunshine & the messages that people write in the sand. Tracy Larry & Bobbie January 2nd, 2010 18:05 47 We were married on St.John 8 years ago & will be on this dock next week. Thanks for the pre-view & the reminder of beauty & warmth. Roy & LuAnn January 7th, 2010 11:12 48 Thanks to Ruth & Ron’s Web Cam because we frequently check out our favorite part of the world, St. John. LuAnn and I were married by Captain Phil, The Wayward Sailor, 11/7/09 on Peace Hill. Ruth & Ron were our witnesses. Thanks again to everyone for making 10 days of heaven on St. John so memorable! Pat February 21st, 2010 14:49 49 Thanks for your webcam! It was especially needed this year as we weren’t able to come to St.John for a visit. It has gotten me through many a snowy day! Kim Wilson March 30th, 2010 09:58 50 I LOVE this webcam. I check it several times a day. My husband and I were visited St John last year and vow that it will be our retirement home. Can’t make it down this year but we are already planning next year’s trip. Leave a Reply Name (required) Mail (will not be published) (required) Website Type what you see « Cool.
