Quick access to traffic cams – Seattle Traffic Cam Review

This is a basic aggregator of images available on the WSDOT traffic site. These images are freely available but not exactly easily accessible via iPhone and/or while in the car so this does provide a useful interface for getting the images quickly. It's not exactly pretty but it works. It presents a sequential list of images and apparently you can modify that list to some extent. You can designate certain cams as favorites (and view by favorites) and you can add (or delete?) entries in the master list. I have not tried the customization options. So it's a useful app for accessing traffic pics that would otherwise be difficult to get. If you are a heavy commuter this is probably worth the $1 admission price, and even if you're not, $1 is a reasonable price for what this offers. One last note: This app will work so long as the WSDOT exposes the JPGs in a predictable manner. If they ever change their method it might break the app requiring reworking by the author. Unlikely to happen any time soon but you never know with government web sites.
