We don't often worry about the potential theft of our devices but many of us do lose them.   Regardless of the case,  did you know you can track them down through the internet?

This special software Prey let's you do just that without the fuss.  You shouldn't have to lose things and why not take advantage of open WiFi and onboard GPS to get them back!

It features all kinds of ways to hone in on your device's locations through the internet. For mobile computers, it runs on Windows, Mac,or Linux.  For the smart phones, it supports both the Apple iOS and Android.

So how does it work?  First it tells your device's GPS & Wifi functions to privately broadcast the system's location to your Prey account online.  Second, it gives you backdoor access to lock it down before prying eyes get a hold of your personal info.  You can even turn the webcam into a security camera to take photos of thieves and unauthorized users.

So where do get this fine piece of software?  Download it at http://preyproject.com/. Again - Did I mention it's free? ha!
