weathernear.me
July 20th, 2010
WeatherNear.Me is a prototype that got built as part of a larger weather based project Jasmine and I were working on. It’s a “single serving site” that displays the weather near you. I had hoped to knock out a v2 with a bunch of new features during the break, but there were fun distractions.
Still it’s a straightforward example of using the W3C Javascript Geolocation API (geoloc) that works in Chrome, Firefox, and Mobile Safari, and it has a super cute iPhone home screen icon that Jasmine designed.
V2 with more trending info, and personalization some day.

very cool, but temperature in Celsius would be kinda nice (or generally metric units)
I kinda like http://geoipweather.com too.
Light and cute, thanks. Some Celsius is all I need.
Fahrenheit only? Only two countries on all the entire world use it…
