This week, the celebrity gossip site GAWKER.COM/STALKER/ (http://GAWKER.COM/STALKER/) introduced a new feature called Gawker Stalker, a service that will attempt to keep track of where various celebrities, like Lindsay Lohan, Colin Farrell, and Rob Lowe, are at all times. Here's how it works: When somebody spots a celebrity, they e-mail the sighting to Gawker which uses the Google Maps program to show exactly where that person was last seen. According to Gawker editor Jessica Coen, this will create, "as close to a live sighting as possible." As you might expect, celebrity publicists hate this idea. Leslie Sloane Zelnik, whose clients include Lohan, Spears, and Kutcher, sums up what all her peers are probably thinking: "As innovative as it might be, it dangerously puts these people in harms way"
