Mine seems to base it location on ip address not gps which can put it a very long way off

As i understand it.. Location is based on IP or cell tower so that the data can't be used to "stalk" anyone and as such is always going to be pretty vague for safety sake.

The "Who's Near" function on the Mobile Web Site used GPS location, but is configured with a minimum distance, to reduce stalking.
