GeoURL: We Know Where You Live, Work and Blog!

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the and-other-stuff-too dept.

hrbrmstr writes "GeoURL is a location-to-URL reverse directory. This will allow you to find URLs by their proximity to a given location. Find your neighbor's blog, perhaps, or the web page of the restaurants near you. Many potential 'location-based services' can spring from this if the database gets big enough. The site has an easy process for maintaining your entries. And can even generate RSS feeds for a given geographical area."

    That's right folks, now all you bored /.'ers can finally find an attractive local girl to stalk! Just enter your location into the convenient form, hit 'Submit', and stalk away!

      Now, I don't want to alarm anybody, but I'm fairly sure to *stalk* 'women' you have to leave the house. This is a scary concept for us all... I think I will stick to downloading pr0n of that lovely housewife next door who wants me. She does. I'm serious you guys.

      Sure beats the old A/S/L method!

    Looks like no one will be stalking random local girls anytime until this story drops off the front page...

    This is a great concept! I absolutely love it!

    Now I can associate addresses to the script kiddies trying to break into my servers, hunt them down, and beat the ever loving crap out of them with baseball bats and chains.

    Finally, something useful on the internet!
