GOOGLE HAS BEEN WATCHING


"O be careful little feet where you go. Oh, be careful little feet where you go. There's a Father up above, and He's looking down in love. So be careful little feet where you go". 

When I was a kid, we used to sing this song in Sunday School.  Well, it turns out God is not the only one watching us. If you own a smart phone with location services, Google Maps has tracked and recorded your every move; not just yesterday, but for the last month. And there is a website to prove it. Click HERE.

Recording our every move may sound a tad creepy, but this technology can be helpful. For example, just this morning I heard about an application that tracks each of your business trips, and at the end of the month spits out the mileage of every trip you took during the month, in a form that you can submit for mileage reimbursement.

We sure do live in an age of incredible technology. A few years ago Apple reported that "30 billion apps" had been downloaded from their store. Who knows, maybe the next app will record what you are thinking. Right now. And all of your thoughts for the last month.
