Explanation[edit | edit source]

Jon was watching Garfield on the computer, and he was surprised when he saw the one that they ordered. Garfield answers with a Yep and looks at the viewer telling him that the site he was looking at displayed the view from a pizza cam.

Here, there's a screenshot of a website tracking the pizza that Garfield and Jon ordered at www.pizzacam.org which isn't a real website.

The image is actually from the San Francisco FogCam!, the website that shares images of San Francisco, California online. The website is the oldest webcam still in existence, having been online since 1994. The website updates every 20 seconds, you know.

The editor's note adds that older webcams no longer operate, first among them being the one that displayed a coffee machine in the Trojan Room at Cambridge.
