One of the arguments against being very virtually social is that nobody is SO important that everyone wants to know, for instance, that this person is going to be at the local sports bar watching the Super Bowl (or almost nobody; sad to say, some celebrities have half the world following them).
Another argument, however, against tweeting and posting your every move is that this tells burglars when you’ll be away from your house.
So, you’re important enough to post every detail of your life on Facebook…but NOT important enough to be the victim of crime, right?
WRONG.
Maybe you’re not so virtually chatty, but other people actually tweet and post from the sports bar to keep followers updated about their emotions regarding the big game. At the same time, these folks are letting burglars know they’re away from home and not returning too soon.
