Editor's Review of Loki for Mozilla Firefox or IE
Don't like to carry around a GPS device? No problem. Turn your laptop into one with this very clever toolbar that works in both Internet Explorer and Firefox. It employs triangulation technology with any WiFi connections near you to determine your location in concert with its Wi-Fi Positioning System. In addition, it will also show you nearby movies, shopping, traffic, weather and so on via various channels, although the channels often show up in a separate browser window.
Be prepared to be offended (or entertained) by some channels, such as the one that shows nearby strip clubs for both men and women. And I found that channel information isn't always particularly useful --- for example, the restaurants channel showed me restaurants from miles away rather than those nearby. Still, the channels are of some use.
Loki Toolbar also functions as a social networking tool, because you can choose to have your location shown to others, and see the location of others, so that you can connect in the real world if you'd like.
