The other day I was watching a news channel report about how students in metros are bunking their classes to roam in malls ,watching movies and freaking out.The report was a typical news channel drama which says that students of good families and schools are bunking the classes and going to malls, secretly changing their uniform in washroom and then freak out.Oblivious parents think that their child has gone for studying.

Students are very smart in making  excuses in front of teachers.It’s difficult for parents also to track their children’s whereabouts.I was wondering and then suddenly realized that the mobile location finder services can prove to be helpful.Although it too is not full proof but parents can secretly keep vigil on their children’s whereabouts with this service.

Location finder service:This service identifies the geographical location of the mobile device of any individual and can intimate to one’s friends.For example if you are the subscriber of the service and has added your friend or child as friend and has taken their permission to be tracked by you then anytime you can track the whereabouts of the friend or child.

Today most of the students carry mobile phones.And if as a parent you want to silently track whereabout of your children or for that matter anybody then subscribe the location finder service from your mobile service operator and add the mobile number of the trackee in your friend list and yourself give consent to be tracked.Then in future you can very easily know the trackee by sending one sms only.

MTNL mumbai is offering friend finder service which a MTNL customer can subscribe by sending  SMS “SUBM” to 52323.Then one can add the number of trackee  by sending SMS “Add mobile number nickname” .Once the trackee gives consent you would be able to track with one SMS.
