Where am I?

What3Words is a handy location app you can use on your phone.

Basically the world is divided upinto billions of 3 X 3 metre squares and each is designated with 3 words.

For instance, the statue of Queen Victoria at the Southern end of the QVB inSydney is at dishes.camp.hint.The dog on the tucker box near Gundagai is at exploit.shrub.pets.

When you open the app it uses the phone's GPS to find the location and display the three relevant words.

This can be very handy if there are no landmarks nearby and can be very useful in notifying emergency services of your location when help is needed.

On the Wiki page is an interesting explanation of how it was developed.
