I haven't heard of a web cam and I doubt it is possible as I'm assuming it would need a power source but why not use Skype or FaceTime?

Kidding. AFAIK, no, there's nothing like that available.

Original iPad does not have a camera. How can it support Skype or FaceTime?

The iPad 2 has two cameras, one front and one rear facing. The original iPad has no cameras.

No, as mentioned, what you want to do with your original iPad is not possible.
