Xylokastro Cam

Xylokastro Cam is a lightweight software application developed specifically for helping you get a view of the Xylokastro city in Greece directly from the comfort of your desktop using a webcam. It can be installed on all Windows versions out there, provided that you have the Yahoo! Widget Engine platform deployed on the target computer.

After a fast and simple installation process where you only need to press on a few ‘Next’ buttons in order to complete the job, you can add Xylokastro Cam to your collection of existing Yahoo! widgets. It sports a small and plain design that allows you to get an idea about how it operates in a short amount of time.

Xylokastro Cam simply reveals a live view of the the Xylokastro city on your screen and displays information about the current date and time. The widget does not come packed with any setup options of its own. No additional tweaking parameters are hidden under the hood.

Other important configuration settings offered by the Yahoo! Widget Engine platform give you the possibility to ignore all mouse actions (you can still interact with the widget via the ‘Heads Up’ mode), disable the ability to drag the main window with the mouse, modify the opacity of the widget, as well as keep the primary panel on top of other windows or show it below all windows. You are allowed to hide or close the widget.

To sum things up, if you are looking for a simple software solution for getting a live view from the Xylokastro city in Greece, you may give Xylokastro Cam a try and see what it can do for you. The poor support for configuration settings makes it suitable especially for less experienced users.
