Better than Google Earth
« on: October 18, 2015, 04:28:39 PM »
I thought that Google Earth was good, but this is even more precise. Check it out, pretty scary to know they can find you anywhere. I'm not surprised to learn that such technology exists. It uses your IP address and finds the exact location of any Internet user in seconds. It uses a sophisticated geo-based algorithm to do so.
Try it to find your PRECISE location on the earth, then watch your screen as the system briefly analyses your data...then displays your PRECISE location. Your location will pop up in a new window in about 10 seconds or less.

It seems to be accurate to about +- 0.5 of a meter.   A truly amazing app.

Yeah, thanks for that.
But who is "you"?
Could be anybody!      :-(((

Actually, don't click on it- I think it's a clever trap to actually locate you so they can come and muss up your hair while you sleep.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
