Dear X-Air and WeatherCat network "weather" observers,

WhatRoute is based on a tool that was developed at an organization called CAIDA:
http://www.caida.org/
I spent about a year working for these folks while I was in San Diego. During that time, they were able to make a tool that would approximately figure out where a computer was located in the world. It is from that code that WhatRoute gets its geographical locations.

I have an alias stored in my Utilities directory, but why did Apple do that? [banghead]

To save you from yourself - obviously . . . . [rolleyes2]
There is a third "old school" way to get this data, using the command line tool traceroute. That is of course where this capability first came to UNIX.
