Google added my location to google maps. on firefox 3.5 it uses the Geolocation API https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Using_geolocation
on chrome it uses Gears the Googles Location Services which is more or less the same

Multiple searches actually that is :-). |
If you've got Firefox 3.0 and Google Gears it will use the locational features in Gears instead. (Yeah, Ubuntu still hasn't got the 3.5 update)
Apparently I'm in London... only 50-70 miles off :P (Same result using either 3.5 or Gears) |
My location is scarily accurate. I'm on wired broadband (so no wifi points for it to use), but it is only out by 15 meters!!
I'm very impressed. |
Perhaps your exchange is 15 meters away? |
![[put at-character here]](image/at.gif) Mrrix32 you can perform an apt-get install firefox-3.5 but it sucks because you will have 2 firefox.
So I still do not have Firefox 3.5 too :-/
