    Default Trouble finding a policeman???

    Never fear, there's an iPhone app for that and soon to be one for Google Android.

    Surrey police are launching their new tracking tool, so you can see where all their officers are in the neighbourhood. Now, you need never wonder why there isn't one around when you need one.

    I can see so many useful applications for this, including a mod which will take the data and let you know if there is one within a mile or so and of it is safe to go and try that open window.

    Transparancy is a wonderful thing.

    You could break into houses and pretend to be Pac-Man.

    Cool! What a great tool for folks who want to stalk their very own police officer!

    There should always be at least one police office who doesn't appear on the map, just to keep everyone on their toes....

    I like that idea. It's so much fun when the diabolical thing to do is actually justified.

    Thanks. I meant "officer," of course.
