Another long day

I love long days full of computer illiterate customers, anywho lets take a look at the latest technology flop that I've come across.

Apparently there were some burglars in New Hampshire that were using that new Facebook places (you can use your iPhone or Android phone to tell people where you're at) to know when people were going on vacation or out of town for the weekend to break into their houses. I can understand the concept of this is pretty interesting, seeing your friend is at the bar down the street and walking over to have a beer with him... but why in the hell would you put this on your status?

It may sound harsh but in my opinion if you feel the need to tell the Facebook universe that you're going on vacation, you should have known what could happen to you.

For some pretty funny stuff you should check out PleaseRobMe.com, spreading awareness of tweeting and facebooking to tell everybody that you'll be gone for a month and that the rolex is in the top drawer inside the Mac box (another stab at mac users, seriously guys, get a real computer).

  1. The Facebook Places thing is rather dumb. I'd rather not have people know where I am or if I'm out of the house and for how long that's why I got it disabled. I'd get rid of Facebook entirely but I use it to keep in contact with some people I knew in High School and family.

    And yea your Mac may be "100% safe" from viruses, but it isn't safe from idiots and thieves who steal from idiots.
