I’ve been really excited about the Windows 7 sensors and location platform since the get-go, but I’ve been pretty disappointed by the lack of actual products to take advantage of it. Finally someone has built a software –based tool that uses IP and WiFi location services (from Google) to find your location. It’s not as accurate as GPS, of course, but it’s good enough to get city which works well for weather and general proximity applications.
It’s free and available for either 32-bit or 64-bit. Get it now!
