A top 10 Iphone application in the USA is called “Offender Locator”.

TechCrunch reports the app allows you to see a list of offenders based on your current location (using the iPhone’s location services), any contact’s address, or it allows you to manually enter an address. The app then scours the database and lists the sexual offenders based on their proximity to the location you gave. You can click on any of these names to get a picture of the person, their information like date of birth, height, weight, and a picture. And you can also see the specific sexual crime they were charged with.

This sound like a tool which could become popular not only in the States but in many other countries.

The app is not free either, you have to pay $0.99 US.
