Cool, it had me about 75 miles to far east and I left that place 50 years ago.

I hit my home town of Chattanooga. Pretty neat

 

[Photon440]

Considering that it only shows the USA it came close with Seattle, the closest large American city to me.

 

[Moparsmitty]

Close. I'm up north of Seattle but it had me over by Boise where I grew up.

wasn't too far off only by 100+ miles or so was the closest, Palo Alto was way off, but Sacramento, Modesto area is kind of close... But I'd bet it goes by your protocol internet access code or something around those lines, is recognized & not that poll questioning at all....

Mine was only 50 miles off it said richmond ,

 

['67Satellite]

Pretty accurate, made me thirsty for a POP.

 

[Chryco69]

Damn thing froze

 

[doninpagosa]

It said Oklahoma City for me, and I live about 50 miles away. This is cool.

 

[BigBlock61]

Mine showed Detroit and Toledo and I'm right between the two.

 

[Richard Cranium]

It told me Boston, Worcester & Providence, which are all in a 50-60 mile radius of me. I'm 2 miles north left of Gillette Stadium which is halfway between Boston & Providence, so I'd say that it's pretty accurate.

 

[fla 66 cuda]

Had me around Tenn. area, I'm from west central Florida!!!!!

 

[chargin']

Mine showed Newark,Yonkers. LOL Been to both places,I like New York! I'm in Newfoundland,Canada.LOL.

 

[HT413]

Hell, I don't need a survey to tell me I'm a joysey boy. It got me somewhere between Phili and Newark.

 

[bigaadams]

it left me way out in left field...may have a lot to do with the many different people I worked with in my military and DoD civilian careers..approx. 400 mile error (now I know why folks misunderstand me and make the remark.."you ain't from around here are ya?)

 

[44070dart]

looks like a few guys moved but still talk like where they came from ...my daughters been in Alabama for about the last 4 years and still sounds NY .. she has to slow down when she talks or she gets that polite huh stare

 

[Cranky]

Didn't show me nutin LOL

 

[BeastlyBirdie]

Mine was off by 2800, but it nailed where I grew up and lived until 12 years ago...between san Jose and San Francisco and since I lived around that area most of my life, kinda funny.

My wife grew up in the Cleveland, Ohio area and never left. It nailed her. I grew up in Cleveland, lived in Texas for 20 years, Kansas for two, Indiana for two. I moved back to Cleveland ten years ago. It put me in Mesa, Arizona. WTF???
