Some interesting Web Sites in your Neighborhood

[gbjbany]

At work we are doing some analysis of sites using web 2.0 capabilities, whilst doing this research we came across some sites i thought you might find interesting reading for your neighbourhood. A bit of fun anyway,

http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php
This site identifies in your area who contributed what to which political party.

http://www.zillow.com
This site allows you to see what your house is worth PLUS all your neighbors houses too.

http://www.zabasearch.com
This looks for info on you that is publicly available, pretty interesting information, to get the detailed stuff you have to pay.

http://allconsuming.net/
Not quite about neighbors but about what your net neighbors blogged about books.

Im sure others have equally interesting sites but just wanted to share this "fun" info.

The scary part is on the sites if you search someones name it will give you the address for free.

frankly i found the whole amount of info available pretty scary but i knew it was there that's what makes identity theft so easy nowadays.
I know it's not quite that simple but it gets someone started and it's not a huge leap to go to the next level and reverse engineer more data about someone. Not that i would.

I must be safe...

First I tried Zabasearch for my name (a fairly common name) but it would only tell me there were too many results to list, even after entering birth year and city/state (but gave no other way to narrow it down any further)

Then tried Zallow, but it couldnt find my address or even my neighborhood.
