24/7 live feed from Makkah ( an official saudi government channel dedicated to the grand mosque ) :
http://www.youtube.com/user/SaudiQur.../l/fW2u8LvnIwQ

you can see Abraj Al-bait every now and then .. the camera even zooms in on the clock sometimes ( especially during the time of Adhan or the call to prayer ).
it's a great way to see the towers progress in real time .

Ramadan Kareem

, the first pic is photoshopped.
The second pic is taken from Makkah-Jeddah expressway near Makkah entrance. It can be seen from a further distance on the same road.

Must be to announce ramdhan, I mean they must've turned them on for a short period like 10-15 minutes.

Majestic. In this last picture, you can really see the sheer scale of the whole complex and the clock, with the small buildings on the hill in front of it. Wow!

You'll love this pic even more when you find the third clock in it.
