Technology is a funny, and sometimes scary, thing.

Check out www.rottenneighbor.com, where you can enter your zip code and find comments from people calling out their neighbors for all kinds of offenses. They don't give out addresses (whew), but they do pinpoint the locations of offending homes on an interactive map.

There aren't a lot of entries yet, but reading the ones there now will give you a chuckle (and perhaps make you draw your curtains a bit tighter).

For example, a search for 55372, Prior Lake's zip code, yields an entry mapped just south of Shady Beach Trail. The complainant writes, "I have two illegal aliens living behind me and can hear their children running up and down the stairs while banging on the wall not to mention throwing a ball against the house every five minutes."
