Tech: Loki - Location-Based Internet Search & Navigation aka Local Search

Location-Based Internet Search & Navigation

Loki is the first application to combine the physical with the digital to make the Internet a truly personal and local experience. We let you harness the World Wide Web by automatically identifying your exact physical location and then making the web revolve around you.
With one click, instantly find the nearest jazz band, directions to the closest Thai restaurant, the cheapest gas prices in town...or even pinpoint your exact location on a map. You can even share that location with others.
Loki is currently in Beta – which means that while it’s not quite perfect, it’s getting there quickly.
