One robbery please, and make it snappy!

In order to draw attention to the sheer amount of public information please put online, someone came up with Please Rob Me. It mines twitter for public twitter status messages that a robber could use to figure out when you're away from home (sortable by city!)



Edit: I gave it a try and with what people post on Facebook combined, I was able to find one guy's name, address, and phone number. He graduated from Michigan in 2008, went to Washtenaw Community College and graduated from Saline High School. He loves laser tag and podcasting his live Dungeons and Dragons game.

    My mom is FLIPPING OUT about this website, considering that all of her kids are on Twitter now.

    "But I never tweet my location" and "I am not on foursquare" don't comfort her. :) top
