Firefox 3.5 and later support the Geolocation API; this allows the user to provide their location to web applications if they so desire. For privacy reasons, the user is asked to confirm permission to report location information. Firefox 3.5 includes support for locating you based on your WiFi information using Google Location Services. In the transaction between Firefox 3.5 and Google, data is exchanged including WiFi Access Point data, an access token (similar to a 2 week cookie), and the user's IP address.
A total of 52 companies launched at last year’s TechCrunch50 conference . Five of them got jury selection prizes, there was one big winner and a very special crowd pleaser: Japan-based Tonchidot’s Sekai Camera , an iPhone app that presents tagged information in the form of a graphical layer over images in the iPhone camera. http://techcrunch.com/2009/02/17/tagging-the-real-world-sekai-camera-for-the-iphone-is-alive-and-very-cool/

JotYou: Location-Based Mobile Phone Messaging - ReadWriteWeb

http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/jotyou_location-based_mobile_phone_messaging.php The basic concept of location-based mobile phone messaging is that you can send a text message to someone's cell phone and they will receive the SMS message only when they enter into the exact location you specify. How can this be useful? Let's say you're up really late working and you want your co-worker to pick up some donuts in the morning on their way to the office. Using a service called JotYou , you can send a message to your friend's cell phone and have them receive it just before they get to the donut shop. You could use the service to remind yourself to do things when you drive by specific locations in a city.

Nyt ohjelma pystyy selvittämään käyttäjän summittaisen sijainnin myös pelkkien gsm-tukiasemien perusteella.
