Default How close to the true SOUTH POLE is this station?

I have put a link at the bottom of this post that will take you to a
WEBCAM in antarctica in which is of pretty high quality with icebergs
in the distance and everything. I do have a few questions about these
pictures.

1--- Do ICEBERGS move? The reason I ask is because they seem to
change shape and size within a matter of hours on any given day. I was
always under the impression that icebergs changing was a process that
took days or even weeks. Can they actually change dimensions within a
given day?

2 --- How close is this webcam to the actual south pole? I mean, it
looks fairly cold there but not anything like I have seen in pictures
of the south pole. I have been looking around trying to find out where
that webcam is but I'm not having much luck.

Thanks in advance.

DAVID :-)
