PleaseRobMe.com is meant to get Twitter users to be careful what they Tweet.

Many people think a plus to social media sites is that anyone and everyone can find you for networking opportunities or to get back in touch, discover where you work, who you’re dating and pictures of your kids, dogs and cats. It’s all accessible, depending on your privacy settings.

A con to social media? Anyone and everyone can find you and get back in touch, discover where you work, who you’re dating and pictures of your kids, dogs and cats.

Why are the pros also cons? If people with good intentions know most of your info, people with bad intentions out there in the blogosphere and Twittersphere do, too. People know what your plans are, where you’re going and why, if you’re vacationing somewhere exotic or if you’re home sick from work. This can lead to making yourself a victim of burglary.

Mashable reported about a possible Twitter-related burglary, and a site called Please Rob Me was started to get people to be more careful about what they’re announcing to the world. It has a live Twitter feed that mainly features accounts of people who have theirs linked to FourSquare or Gowalla, sites that publicly tweet where a person is.

For the record, if used mainly for business, sharing advice and networking, this doesn’t really apply to you. But when you start tweeting about being away on a business trip or attending a business conference in another city, just be careful what you say!

See? He's got the hang of it.

To everyone who says they “can’t Twitter” or “don’t get it,” look — it’s so easy, a dog can do it.

No really, a dog can Twitter.

Mattel has come up with something called “Puppy Tweets.” If you think your dog could tweet some worthwhile nuggets of wisdom, sign Fido up for his own Twitter account, then pay $30 to buy Puppy Tweets, a plastic sound-and-motion sensor that clips onto your dog’s collar and sends out several pre-written tweets.

For example, “YAHOOOOOOO! Some days you just gotta get your bark on.”

Since anyone – or any animal – can tweet now, there’s really no excuse for anyone to not be an active tweeter.

The CEE wants to make sure that future generations are thoroughly prepared to make responsible financial decisions.

It’s a given that young people will face economic challenges and opportunities in the coming years. Perhaps spurred by the US recession, the Council for Economic Education (CEE) is committed to “empowerment and opportunity through economic and financial literacy,” it says.

An economic way of thinking is something that’s necessary in business and especially in coaching a business; you need to be able to foresee economic conditions and what economic solutions are best in each situation.

The CEE wants to make sure, however, that future generations are thoroughly prepared to make responsible financial decisions. To do this, it is focusing on developing training programs for K-12 teachers to teach their students.

Is this too early to learn about economics, supply and demand, and how to make informed financial decisions? It might be argued that it’s never too early to learn anything.

The CEE gives K-12 teachers tools they need to teach economics and finances with confidence, even if they themselves haven’t understood the subjects easily. Either way, this way the CEE is informing and educating more people – not only K-12 children, but also their teachers – and these classes and teaching tools will hopefully benefit everyone’s futures, helping everyone to make sound financial decisions later in life.
