about evil bob
evil bob is not real. evil bob is not at your house. just keep telling yourself that.evil bob does not exist in the physical world, but he hangs out a lot on twitter. and on twitter he finds foursquare updates where people say they are at home. evil bob likes to check out those updates, and when he finds real addresses listed, he stops by. he then tweets his foursquare location and posts the location here, with a handy map of where he is now and a list of recent places he's been. when you click the links to venues evil bob has visited, you'll see him there.
so why does evil bob do this? well simply put - he's evil. but he also likes to remind people that public means public - if you choose to disclose your home address on foursquare and choose to broadcast your home address on twitter, people can learn where you live - and somebody might decide to stop by.
and that somebody just might be evil bob.
