Someone stole my Mac Pro!

Published on May 30, 2009

On a personal note...

If you follow me on Twitter, then you likely know about this already. But while I was vacationing in the midwest with my family, someone broke into my house and stole my Mac Pro, two displays, and a printer. The police fingerprinted several places in our home, so who knows? Maybe they'll catch the thief.

Anyway, the story is getting some attention on the local news because there's a chance the criminals knew we were gone because I twittered about my family's trip. The media is very interested in Twitter right now.

Of course, the burglary may also be a random crime -- which unfortunately is becoming more common in my neighborhood.

Do I plan on quitting my use of Twitter? No.

Will I be more cautious about what I tweet? Yes, certainly.

I'll update this post with links to news stories as I discover them.
