Broadcasting Location

For about 6 months, I broadcasted my location on my website. I did it through Navizon running on my iPhone and had a Google map on my site displaying a pin at my current location. At first it freaked me out when people called me already knowing where I was or knew I was on my way somewhere. It definitely made me feel more aware about where I was at any moment and I became more honest about keeping appointments. I wouldn't tell people "I'm on my way" if i wasn't really on my way. Eventually, I encouraged people to take advantage of it. I wanted people to call me if they saw that I was in their neighborhood (which happened a few times) or not to call me just to ask where I was.
