Another +1 for Frontpoint.
I set our system so that my phone notifies me if the basement door is left open for an extended period of time. Tonight, my wife and I were doing a few chores in the basement and we both walked out the basement door to take trash out. I came back in the same door, but left it slightly ajar so my wife could get back in. She ended up coming in the front door, so the back door remained open. Thanks to the system, I noticed it well before bedtime and closed/locked the door. Given how little we use that door, it could have remained open for days.... or at least until we armed the system the next time.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
