Lose it...Find it...Boomerang It!!

Now!....This is one interesting service that I came across (although I am still unsure if its really worth it). It's called BoomerangIt. The whole idea is to tag all your prized possessions and in the event of a loss, the person who finds it can easily report it on their website. They then take care of collecting it and shipping it back to you.

Everyday, an average business traveller is being accessorized by all kinds of gadgetry. Laptops, PDA's, cell-phones, Mini DV camcorders, digital cameras, travel scanners are the business travellers' best friends. With the advent of compact memory cards and drives, the idea of 'travelling with data' is exploding in every sense. It's not a bad idea after all to have everything tagged. The website claims that their tagging system can help you find everything from watches to boats.

The only problem that I see with this is that your item has to be found by a 'good samaritan'.
