Eye On CameraWare -- community

Tell us a bit about yourselves.
We're Matt and Jeana from central Illinois. I am 35 and Jeana is 34. We have three children from previous marriages: I have a 9-year-old daughter, and Jeana has a 5-year-old son and a 15-year-old daughter. We now are expecting a child together, a son due November 15! We met one another right here in CameraWare in our favorite room, Cobracam, in April of 2001, where I was formerly Laserman and Jeana was known as Jeana.

How long have you two been on a webcam?
I was in Cobracam shortly after it began, with Jeana finding Cobracam months later the following April of 2001---with me being the first person she talked to the day she found it!

How did you both choose your name?
LOL!! Jeana just used her first name and I had a friend in New Jersey, where I am from, who owned a truck that had "Laserman" written on the dashboard. I don't know why he wrote that but it always stuck in my mind and thought it was a cool chatroom nick so I used it! Later after Jeana and I got together I changed my nick to my first name as well. Now we are known to the world as MattnJeana because we always come in together!

How did you both find CameraWare?
One day I heard about cam sites while listening to the Howard Stern radio show, and starting searching for cam sites when I found Cobracam in CameraWare. I never left! One day Jeana just thought there had to be cam chat rooms so she searched and the first one she found was a live zoo feed...lmao. The very next one was Cobracam where she found CameraWa---and she was hooked! She has never left it since!

What is your favorite thing about being on cam?
Honestly, I love to show off Jeana. She is very beautiful and I am very lucky to have her! We love to fool around on cam and express our love for one another while chatting with our friends who are like family to us. Many of them have followed our story since we first met--actually even before we met.

Is it easy to broadcast using CameraWare?
Yes, very easy. Once you download the CameraWare software, it's very easy and kinda self-explanatory. We also enjoy using mIRC to chat with, with its many functions---which we only know a few! LOL

How has CameraWare changed your lives?
Well, LOL, the short version would be that Jeana and I met in Cobracam, fell in love, and a small fortune in airfare and phone bills later, I moved here to Illinois from New Jersey to be with her. We are now married and expecting a son November 15! We think of it now and realize just how difficult this road has been for us to have what we both wanted... each other! Many sacrifices were made and many hard times have followed, but we would do it all over again and not change a thing! The scariest part for us was the flying back and forth to see one another---neither of us had flown before! I had driven out to see her for the first time in late October; it was a 17-hour-long drive, 1000 miles...so we decided to fly from there on out...lol. We had spent many, many long hours chatting and talking on the phone from April to October before I made that drive! If it weren't for CameraWare and especially Cobracam, we would have never met in the first place! LOL. We even went live on CameraWare our first night together in October!

Do you have any favorite Communities?
Cobracam of course!!!!!!! What can we say---we are loyal to that site where we found the love of our lives!!!

When are you two usually online?
Usually during the evenings during the week around 10:30 central time and on the weekends, sometimes all day and night! LOL.

Have you made new friends on CameraWare?
We have made many friends all around the world it seems, and of course the regulars in Cobracam that we feel are like family to us! We have made so many friends in Cobracam it would take a book to mention them all. We would like to say thank you to Cobra and Shelby... We feel you are responsible for the happiness we now have! We receive a ton of mail from our "fans"!!! We love getting mail and always respond to the kind letters we get!

Do you prefer being told what to do by admirers or do you prefer to make it up as you go along?
Of course, we love to have fun on cam! We usually start chatting and the fun begins! But both Jeana and I always get requests and comments that our downright rude and that can be a real downer. The rules are very simple: Just let things happen! We love to just go on cam and let our love shine through for one another! Sometimes it can be quite racy; other times we are just chatting; nothing is ever planned with us......... except for the occasional "bathcam"!!!!!! LOL. Many of our friends have even joked that this baby was conceived on cam!!! LMAO.

Do you have a favorite story about something that happened on CameraWare?
LOL...One day a few months back, Jeana had her friend over and they both went on cam together! I had the idea for them to wear bib-overalls and nothing underneath them!!!! They broke a record in Cobracam for the most people coming in there during that time...the funny part is they didn't really do a thing.... LOL. That happened after they went off cam!!!!!!! Hehehehehe.
