Implementing an entire surveillance system on the Web-Engine is a lot easier then it sounds. Every time a user signs on, a file will be written to that will contain information. This information will include:
-the username
-the ip address
-the time-stamp [a large combination of all the seconds from some date in the 90's]
-the time
-the date
Then when the user views pages of the website:
-the name of webpage he viewed
-the URL of the website he viewed
So the data should look like this:
user123 viewed the articles page [http://www.pokemon.com/articles/pokemon.php] @ 3:15pm [3487172817] 183.0.0.1 on Thursday 8-25-2011.
Every page he views is recorded just like this, not necessarily monitored but the information is good to have. It will be recorded into a text file and be kept in a flash drive. I estimate that there will be about 1mb of data imputed per day, so 1gb every 1,000 days. so a 4gb flash drive will last a long time before i need to buy a new one.
