Loki is a location based search tool, which helps in finding where you are in a new place and deliver the information like local news, local businesses, weather forecasts etc. To use loki you need to install their toolbar and hit the button to find your location and then you can search for local information.

Loki functionality is based on Skyhook Wireless WiFi Positioning System (WPS) which uses WiFi access points to triangulate a user’s location.

With WPS operating to determine and publish the user’s latitude/longitude, street, address, zip code, city, state or general geographic area, the Loki users can efficiently and effectively use that location to quickly find the most and accurate information.

Loki Works on IE and Firefox, download the toolbar here
