Two Additional Uses for Your Cell Phone

Remember what it was like the last time you got a call at work that your kids were locked out of the house? Remember the last time you and the family were miles from home and you couldn't remember whether you locked your doors?

What would be more amazing than having your door key literally right on your phone? Now with the new wireless and remote internet locks from GoKeyless.com you can. It's called Schlage LiNK and is available from America's Favorite Lock Store.

You can be miles from home and in 3 simple steps open your cell phone, login to your personal home security site, and click to lock your doors. Okay, so maybe you actually did lock up. How cool would it be to trust and verify right from your car while you're driving. Let's face it, this isn't the let's leave our doors unlocked 1950's anymore. How many of us even know and talk to our neighbors these days? We IM or email people a world away on another continent, but we can't be sure that the strange guy down the street isn't scoping out the house looking for a chance to get in and take something.

What's really slick, is that these locks can be programmed to send you a text message or email to your phone letting you know your kids have arrived home and are safe. How many times have you been in a meeting when you couldn't get away to call your son or daughter to be sure they made it in safely. Should anyone ask during the meeting what you're doing, go ahead and tell them. They'll likely stop the meeting and ask you where you got that new, cool gadget!
