Occasionally, not often, I get really shitfaced. The next day, with a hangover from hell, empty pockets and while nursing a hair-of-the-dog beer, I look up GoogleMaps timeline for the day before.
It tells me everywhere I went the night before, how I got there (either walking or tuk tuk), when I arrived, when I left and what time I ended up at Katy Perry's pizza and then got home. On many occasions the full horror of my antics surprise and amuse me!
Technology has it's good points, but if the C.I.A. are after you, then finding you will be easy.

I have a feeling you have never used that program. after seeing their spelling I'd certainly not be giving them my cc info.

Yeah, I'm not comfortable with location sharing being turned on, or with being signed into google or Facebook all the time on my phone.

The simple rules of going out revolve around not having more than a certain amount you can spend on drinks, in a night.

Google asks me how a gas station was?
WTF?
I also noticed it was asking me about places I never went to.
I figured out it was where my wife was parking her scoopy when she went to the Khmer market...because I gave her my old phone.
