What are the possibilities that your browser could help you locate your position? Hmmnnnn.. that’s not a possibility, but already a reality. If you’ve been into a new place and don’t know where to shop or dine then your firefox browser could be of help.

Just turn on your laptop and run Firefox. The browser will then automatically deduces your location. It will then suggest locations for shopping and dining. It will even plot directions from where you are. This is only possible with Geode a Firefox add-on geolocator technology. People Locator services are a great program to use, but what Firefox offers is an alternative. Geode Firefox 3.0 add-on supports a Web site to query a user’s location. Security is a concern, so the browser prompts the surfer whether they want to reveal their location up to what extent. Things revealed like exact address, neighborhood, or city is up to the user.
