WEBSITE OF THE DAY – Please Rob Me

Not at home right now? Maybe keep that to yourself...

Not so much website of the day as warning of the day.

A great little awareness site, that raises an issue that many tech-savvy travellers might not think about.

Telling the world exactly where you are via Twitter or Facebook might be fun, but it can be dangerous.

It tells the world that you’re not home and that’s something that burglars just love to know.

Food for thought.
