Abstract

See full text

The geographic location of an Internet user is determined and correlated with the Internet protocol address of the user during an active Internet session. This information is stored preferably by the user's Internet service provider so that Internet services can be provided to the user based on the user's location. The user's location can supplement a request for services made by the user so that the responding web site or application will have additional information on which to base a reply. Alternatively, a web site or application may initially seek to send messages and/or information to users within a predetermined geographical location.
