Geo location of a server



Here is a handy little app for occasional use. It's a Google Map mashup that allows you to see the physical location of a server. It was useful for me today when a whois lookup failed to give enough info on who owned a server that was not working properly. This allowed me to see its physical location and thus allow a pretty good guess of who the actual owner was ands who we needed to contact to fix the issue:
