Link: Loki Toolbar Beta. Okay, I know. Just what you don't need is another browser toolbar cluttering up your page. However, this little beta may be an essential tool. You have the WiFi adapter in your computer already, why not put it to good use? Loki uses local WiFi to locate you, and to tell you what is around you of interest. You can send your location to anyone by email. You can pinpoint your current location and bring up a map instantly, without a GPS device. You can locate stores, restaurants, ATMs and whatever in your immediate vicinity. This is like having a free local guide in your computer when you travel. It's free to download and use.
This sounds like a great tool. Unfortunately, it doesn't yet work for the Mac OS... :(
