The SHH is triangulating your iPhone

We’ve added our wifi access point to Skyhook. Now if you’re using iPhone geolocation or other apps such as the delightful fireeagle updater Clarke in our home you’ll get accurate location information without good GPS signal.

This is lovely because it reuses existing infrastructure (our wifi) to make things easier for any context-aware apps we might build without us having to create any fancy infrastructure/code of our own.

If you want to do the same for your own home follow the instructions on the Skyhook site.
