Hey folks-- Right, the IP data isn't everywhere (yet) - that's why I had fallback behavior in the demo app. It actually doesn't work for the internal Google IP, so I had to blind-code that demo. Fun times. :)
Re privacy - I actually think most users would be fine with their city being known (estimated). This doesn't go any more precise than that. So now that you've all experimented with it, you can decide whether to recommend it to developers looking for this kind of functionality. For the record, it gets my apartment's location correctly. - pamela On Thu, Aug 28, 2008 at 4:47 AM, marcelo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Aug 28, 1:39 pm, "warden [Andrew Leach - Maps API Guru]" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> I'm rather glad that at least in the UK, IP address is not accurate. >> > > Same here!
