iPhone Location Tracking
by Ryan on Apr.20, 2011, under Misc
So according to this article, the iPhone 4 contains an unencrypted file that it uses to record every location it’s ever been in. A tool was released to graph this information on a map, and the photo above is what it looks like for my iPhone. The detail level is amazing; it’s tracked every place I’ve stopped, even an airport in Arizona and my week-long trip in Ohio. Also interesting is the trail from Portland to San Francisco, where I took a train between the two cities while traveling this summer.
Ignoring the obvious security implications of this, I find the above picture to be pretty dang cool.

I think this is a great idea for Google. Not only are they returning to their Ad-bound roots, but these results will drastically improve search results on the web, too. It’s essentially like taking StumbleUpon data and injecting it directly into Google’s PageRank algorithm.
In the future expect to have links that you will appreciate and benefit from at the top of all of your Google search results.
…sorry Facebook.
