We’ve added Google Gears support to both www.shizzow.com and m.shizzow.com to help auto-detect your location!
How does it work? If you have Gears installed, you will be prompted to allow Shizzow to access information about your device.
Gears will attempt to auto-detect your location when you visit your Shizzow dashboard. On Android phones it will use a combination of GPS, wi-fi triangulation and/or cell tower triangulation, while on most other devices it will use wi-fi triangulation. If Gears can pinpoint your current latitude and longitude, it will hand that data to Shizzow, which will display a list of nearby places.
Visit gears.google.com to install Gears and to determine if Gears is installed on your device.
If Gears cannot tell precisely where you are at, it will typically place you in the center of the nearest major city.
As always, feedback is most welcome at GetSatisfaction.
