However, I am wondering if there are any more elegant solutions for
sharing the webcam on one machine with other machines.
I use the "Webcam" package.
With a config file cobbled together from bits I found online.

I have it set to archive locally every image, and only take a picture
when the image changes by a certain amount. It also uploads the latest
picture to my website.

Sometimes I make a time lapse with the pictures using mencoder:-
mencoder -ovc lavc -mf fps=25:type=jpg 'mf://*.jpg' -vf harddup -ofps 25
-noskip -o out.avi
