Speaking of surveillance, three and a half years after it was announced, the City Council Webcam finally went live last week. We missed it completely here at GB HQ, but Chicagoist liveblogged it. You can tune in again at ChiCityClerk.com for the next one on Oct. 31. Yep, Halloween. Bet that'll be scary.
