Time Lapse?

I came across a free and fun little application to take time lapse images using a web cam or your built in iSight camera on standard Macs.  This software lets you set up how many images or still photos to take and the duration time.  For example you can record an event and schedule the software to take a snap shot every 3 seconds.  You also have control over the frame rate of the final video.  I like to use 10 frames per second, but you will have to play around to get your desired result.  When the event is over, the software complies the images into a movie file, that you can export to the web, upload to YouTube, or insert into your blog.

The software is called Gawker- This can be found at
