And now people are flocking to location-based Web services, such as Foursquare, Gowalla or Loopt, that let them use their cell phones to alert friends to where they are. Some people choose to show their whereabouts only to approved buddies. But plen- ty push these very specific up- dates through public Twitter profiles that anyone can see. This phenomenon is what motivated the creators of Please Rob Me, according to one of them, Boy Van Amstel, 25. Van Amstel said from Hol- land, where the site is based, that technology has become so easy to use that people are sharing too much online with- out even realizing it. He and his co-founders want people to think twice about it. To drive the point home, Please Rob Me’s Web page shows a scruffy-looking, loot- lugging burglar. Below that, it indicates that the site is “list- ing all those empty homes out there.” It doesn’t really show empty houses, or even people’s home addresses. Instead the posts on the list show Twitter users’ photos, their Twitter user- names, how long ago they “left home” (which is deter- mined by when they checked in with Foursquare) and where they went, along with a link to their destination on Foursquare’s Web site. Some of the posts on Please Rob Me have come from Christopher Lynn, who often publishes his Foursquare updates on his Twitter feed. Lynn, director of sales and marketing for the Colonnade Hotel in Boston, was a little unnerved to realize his loca- tion was also being shared on Please Rob Me as it automati- cally captured the data. He said knowing that would make him more cautious about post- ing on Foursquare when he’s far from home. He also plans to keep details about where he lives off the Web. But Lynn doesn’t think Please Rob Me — or the sec- ond thoughts it is trying to spark — will hamper the rise of location-based services. “I think the power of want- ing to share where you’re at and what you’re experiencing at the time is going to trump most people’s wariness,” he said. Foursquare co-founder Den- nis Crowley said he can imag- ine that sharing where you are could have bad consequences.
