5:43 am

5:49 am
you're going, this is a great app for that. ed davis says it is great to see technology to deep you safe or pinpoint your location, that shouldn't be your only plan. remember like any piece of technology, there could be bugs. you could accomplish that same thing with a telephone conversation, but to be quite honest with you, the combination of both is probably a good way to go. these two freshman would rather stick together at night but agree the app is better than going it alone. whether it is an app, phone call or walking with a friend, ed davis tells us this is all about planning ahead. paying attention to your own personal safety is something that can save your life. paula evans, wbz news. great idea. the head of the charles regatta, a teen you'll want to
