Zusammenfassung:	A live wallpaper for a computing device is disclosed. The live wallpaper displays imagery from various image sources (e.g. Picasaweb, Panoramio, Google+, Facebook, Twitter) and displays new imagery upon the occurrence of various trigger conditions, such as upon user interaction with the live wallpaper or upon the passage of a period of time. In a particular implementation, the live wallpaper can be configured to display geolocated photographs associated with a geographic area input into the computing device. For instance, geolocated photographs associated with a user's current location can be displayed and can change automatically as the user's locality changes. The live wallpaper can be configured to display imagery that has not previously been displayed as the wallpaper on the computing device to present new and unseen images and different backgrounds for the computing device.
