Surveillance is a screenlet that downloads and displays images from over 200 Internet accessible surveillance cameras from around the world. It periodically cycles through different cameras, and continuously updates the image for the current camera every few seconds. You can immediately cycle to the next camera by left clicking on the screenlet's window.

The screenlet will indicate when a new camera is loading or the image is updating. If the screenlet is currently loading an image, there may be short delays when right-clicking for the menu, etc.

Not all cameras are turned on 24 hours a day and they are located all over the world in many different time zones, so not every camera will display an image at a given time. If the current camera is inaccessible, an error graphic and message will be displayed.
