    Spare a thought for the modern thief. They have to face off against phones that can broadcast their location, laptops that lock themselves down, a LoJack service for iPods, and now a laser tripwire that can twitter pictures of unwanted visitors.

Check out the instructions at the read link, or just enjoy the little demo video after the break if you're feeling lazy.
