  Location? and Other Ramblings

I'm curious about how greasy figures out your location. You don't put a location or postal code anywhere, you don't type it in yourself... Does it trace your IP address? What if you want to be anonymous? The location listed on my blog is close, but not correct. However, that is where my ISP is located.

I find this site to be weird. It's so similar to the old blogster, just mixed around a bit. I'm having problems with the text size. I have to use the Zoom feature to read posts.

Hi Marg. Just working on my millions of projects (currently sewing and building a light stand for starting seeds and preparing for foaling in 2 months or so...)

Yes, it uses IP geo-locating. If you want your location changed, just let me know. Basically, the reason we have this is so users don't put fictitious locations as we use real locations for mapping and weather functions. As to the text site, all you have to do is click on the text of a post or comment and it will zoom in.

Speaking of weather function.....mine doesn't. Is it because I live in Hicksville or because I don't live in the US. It doesn't really matter. All my tomorrows are sunny.
