    According to several U.S. news outlets in Nashua, N.H., police say they've arrested three young men allegedly responsible for about 50 burglaries in the city last month. More specifically, TV station WMUR notes that the suspects "used social-networking sites such as Facebook to identify victims who posted online that they would not be home at a certain time".

    The burgleries were easy to perform as the Social network users victimized, also left their front doors unlocked. And a note on the door for the postman to use the spare key to put any mail on the foyer table in case the door accidentally gets locked.....

    Good news--if it's them. And a good warning for anyone posting their whereabouts online.
