The British want to nick your iPod!

Okay, not really, but there's a whole slew of articles bumping about the blogosphere today. I first spotted this over at fscklog, who links to this PowerPage article; both sites feature the picture accompanying this very post. Macworld UK also mention "iPod mugging" as the latest media trend.

So the British have these posters up all over the blooming place to warn you that your iPod might be nicked if you advertise it. According to my friend, Jason Ball, who lives in London, they also have similar posters warning against cellphone theft. Jason went on to note that "everyone has both of them!" (i.e., both an iPod and a cellphone).

Being a part of the media, whether we're welcomed or not, I couldn't let today pass without mentioning this latest media trend here on TUAW.

Ah, how I miss London.
