As a developer there are certain things you can do to develop web sites so that […Read More]
HTML5 and the Geolocation API
HTML5 has a lot of pretty awesome features. One in particular that I have been playing around with lately is the geolocation API. With this API, you can detemine the geographical location of your users. This can be helpful for applications that might recommend local services or products based on a person’s location.
