No tutorial or anything this time. Rather, I'd just like to bring an aspect of social media to your attention. There are people who condemn social media for various reasons--the vast majority of those reasons being ridiculous and untrue--but one thing that cannot be debated on is its ability to aid when there is a dangerous situation afoot.
Missing Person and Missing Pet posters cannot reach as many people as tweets and blog posts, and the same can be said for alerts about criminal activity. Check out this news item about a family using social media in hopes of someone being able to identify the two burglars who robbed their home.
