I had one guy once come to my door, my German Shepherd dog was out back, but was coming in just as I opened the door, this guy stuck his foot inthe door jam, my dog comes up beside me, I grab his collar. this guy looks at my dog (who is huge!) and says "I am sorry I think I have the wrong place" I said I think you do, and called the cops right after I shut the door.

Google Maps has photos of most homes in major cities that you can see. My brother-in-law showed me their home when I was visiting them. It shows my sister's car in driveway and the trash can waiting to be picked up. You can zoom up and down their street and look at their neighbors houses. My brother-in-law told me that they used to show people on the streets but after a lawsuit they have to airbrush people out of the photos.

Nope I don't worry. I am selective in what I post. I know how to use my gun and one look at me and the bad person would certainly run the other way.

If anyone wants their property image blurred or part of it, here is an article on how to do it:

P.S. Google does have 4th generation cameras now that, according to the Wikipedia page here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Street_View take near HD imagery as well as 3D mapping and they will be reshooting all areas that used older generation cameras.

One site with a lot of personal information (as much of it wrong right:)) is spokeo.com

Not to concerned. Don't really think anyone is going to try any of my quilts...... Good luck finding mee

I worry more about Facebook, I'm very careful what I post there. As for here, I'd worry more if my boss or stepkids read my posts.
