I guess I didn’t know I needed to carry a GPS when I brought my laptop somewhere with me.
This is comical.
Perhaps it isn’t the software, Geode, by Mozilla; perhaps it is the article.
Maybe it's both.
“Where am I? The Firefox location tool that helps know where your computer is."
“In the future Geode will be able to tell you if you are at home or at work”
'You’ve arrived in a new city, a new continent, a new coffee shop. You don’t really know where you are, and are looking for a good place to eat,' reads the Mozilla Labs blog.
'You pull out your laptop, fire up Firefox, and go to your favorite review site. It automatically deduces your location, and serves up some delicious suggestions a couple blocks away and plots directions there.'
Wait, it’s those crazy Brits again.

How about I purchase my airline ticket, take my long flight, take a taxi, walk down a boulevard (with my laptop), need some caffeine, find a café, order some espresso and a pastry and ask “By the way, this is Paris, correct, mademoiselle?”
And, voilà! (Did I spell that correctly? Okay, then it must be France) I didn’t even find my Wi Fi connection yet, but I think I didn't need my computer to know where I was.
