Smart Phones are WAY Smart, Becareful.

Recently I posted some pics on a website that I took with my Blackberry. Within a few minutes someone posted that they could see my house from Google earth.

What I didn`t realize is that with the proper software you can see the location where they pic was taken. I guess the GPS in the phone encodes that into the pic. I`m not that savvy when it comes to technologies at that level.

Needless to say I was quite taken back by this wonderful technology advancement.

Big Brother is watching your every move.

That said be careful what you are posting from your phones if you have a GPS on the phone.

There is a setting in your phone that you can turn off so your images will not share GPS info.

I know that now Dwayne but didn`t know that before. Somethings you learn by experience

Showoffs, both of you. I was going to brag that I had recently upgraded to two cans with a string from the smoke signals I had been using. Pretty good I thought because I kept experiencing dead cells when I went into an area that had a burn ban in force.

You guys crack me up, no wait, I crack me up. One thing for sure it`s hard to get the last word in on this forum.

Hey Steve...I sent you an order...the pigeon with the note tied to his foot should be there tomorrow sometime.
