Software to take Picture via iSight after some interval

I'd like to periodically take pictures of myself while I work. Is there a time lapse application that works on Mac OS X that (unobtrusively) takes photos and say, saves them into a folder?

I don't think this is an exact duplicate; I wasn't looking for software that took a picture after an interval, but repeatedly, as well. Which is to say, not just a delay, but actual time lapse. – aresnick Sep 3 '11 at 17:21

ImageSnap recently added the ability to take a picture at a specified interval.

You could then stitch the images together into a movie using 'mencoder' or a number of other utilities.
