Have A Rotten Neighbor?
This one was so much fun to research! Have you been considering moving into a brand new community? You know that the real estate agent is going to tell you all the neighbors are perfect citizens, and most of them sing in the Church choir. But you and I both know that is just a huge load of crap. So where do you have to go to find the real deal on what is going on behind those strange looking people’s walls? Rotten Neighbor dot com.
I checked out my own neighborhood on Rotten Neighbor, and it had already been tagged several times; quite accurately I might add. I left a tag or two myself, and definitely plan on leaving more later. I just couldn’t wait to start the article and let everyone know about this service.
The mapping system runs off of Google maps, using the satellite, map, or hybrid views. I’ll assume it updates as often as Google does, but I really have no way of verifying that. Anyways, if you’re familiar with Google’s wonderful map service, you’ll feel right at home at Rotten Neighbor. If you’ve never used Google maps, you’ll catch on quick, and you’ll love it. Quite addicting.
Rotten Neighbor requires (a fairly painless) registration, but the comments you leave can stay anonymous (thank God). Most definitely a good thing. I recommend going and checking this out immediately; you might be surprised what you learn!

Rotten neighbor doesn’t seem worthy of promotion.
Much like the Neighborhood watch, C.O.Ps and T.I.Ps schemes it promotes spying on the neighbors.
This has very little to do with keeping your houseprices high and lots to do with getting the authorities involved in peoples daily routine.
People should avoid rottenneighbour.com and schemes of this sort.

Sorry you feel that way. Thanks for the alternate view point.
