Just be careful with this, I heard recently of a semi-pro photographer  
in the US who had his house burgled after the GeoTags on his Flickr  
account were linked to the facebook page stating "Woohoo! Holiday for  
two weeks! and a twitter post saying "Just arrived, can't wait to get  
to the pool".

The thieves knew he was away for a fortnight, knew he wasn't coming  
back as he had arrived at the destination and knew where he lived from  
the geoTags on photos of his house/kids/cat etc.

Just a thought...
