This worked great on android’s webkit browser. Also tested in FF and Chrome and worked nice.

It’s really interesting and cool but it depends a lot on your ISP, for example, I live in Vicenza, Italy, our company uses Fastweb as ISP, and geolocation responds that I stay in Modena, a city in an other region!!!!

Lat and Long seems to work in Chrome 6 for me.

Wow, this creeps me out David! You always seem to amaze me… :-O
A feature like this could be very handy for all those annoyed people who don’t like filling in address forms. Does this always work, even with firewalls/DNS/hotspots/ripping internet from your neighbours?

Latitude and Longitude work fine on Opera 10.60.
Kinda scary how easy it is to get your location…

@Dan: I’m going to write a book about the history of the WWW and that’s going to be the title.

It will be cool when this becomes a viable option on sites (when more browsers support it)
