[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2114782, member: 345386"] There was an article on the BBC News website today about a (relatively) new app called "What3Words". It's a geolocator, which has allocated every 9mtr square on the globe 3 words. These days the emergency services are utilising it where callers don't know where they are (lost on a hillside, or maybe having a brain freeze). The article is here: [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-49319760']www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-49319760[/URL] and [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-47705912']www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-47705912[/URL] The website is here: [URL='https://what3words.com/daring.lion.race']what3words.com/daring.lion.race[/URL] I must admit, I have downloaded it today, in the hope I'll never need to utilise it.
