Just the piece of mind of being able to look up and see that I left my wallet on the bedside table is worth the price of admission and I don't really see it as too much of an invasion of privacy who else knows my wallet is safely at home either.

For those not in the know, just google "Daily Mail" and "crap" at the same time, and you'll discover just exactly what it's full of.

You can track your spouse by bugging them. Of course a thief could bug you, or a kidnapper or a killer. But then you could track the stolen items, where you are being held or where is your corpse. I guess they could bug you anyway without the help of Google. If the technology exist they can do it. So Google is just making it accessible to everyone. We are reaching the end of privacy. Not because of Google but just because they will be a camera and an RFID tag on everything. Big brother will use it, so we might as well the whole family watch. <img src="http://www.blogstorm.co.uk/images/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile"> We will certainly save on detective fees.

I'd rather loose my phone and my keys than have something I carry with me all the time searchable online. What was that movie with Will Smith? Enemy of the State I think, Gene Hackman's secret lab gets blow up because Will Smith uses a pay phone. Remember that? Now you don't even need the pay phone. <br /> wow, that is so creepy it gives me the chills. I’d rather loose my phone and my keys than have something I carry with me all the time searchable online.
