Here at Locknet, we like to keep ourselves in the loop on the latest door and lock happenings, and what kind of blogger would I be if I kept all of that valuable information to myself? The answer: Not a very good one. Usually I have a chance to post the links on our Twitter feed, but Twitter? She be a harsh mistress, as a pirate would say.
