Monitor the Texas-Mexico Border Online

On Friday Texas began testing a new website allowing anyone with an internet connection to see video feeds of cameras positioned along the state's border with Mexico.

Steve Berg says:

It is Big Brother in action, and will eventually have up to 200+ camera's when they are finished with the multi-million dollar project.

I am not sure if it will do any good -- but for those of you that are truly worried about border control issues I guess it is better than nothing.

You will need to register to view the border, and can report suspicious activity if you see it by clicking a link on the site.

Any info summited goes directly to local law enforcement and the state's operations center. Earmarked federal security grants are funding this $5 million program.
