Should you divulge your vacation plans online?

Posted on December 09, 2009 in Internet, Local News by Gerhard | No Comments » 

Schools will be closing this week and the holiday is upon us all. This holiday I’m sure most of us will be going away for a while to take some time away from our busy schedules.

Today I saw a number of bloggers posting about their holiday plans and when they will be going away and for how long, this made me think, is it wise to divulge all your holiday plans online?

The internet is an great way to express your views on things and share stories of your live with fellow internet users, but it also make certain information freely available to crooks. What better way is it for a burglar to go search the web for posts about peoples holiday plans and then have enough time to burgle your house or office while you are away.

So please if you are going to tell us about your holiday plans keep it simple, do not give away exact dates and information that could be useful to criminals.

I know chances are slim that house burglars are really tech savvy, but you never know. What do you guys think about giving away such information on your sites?
