Just discovered that the GNOME weather applet has been integrated into the clock in the GNOME Panel. The scary thing is that I don’t know how it knows where I am to display the right temperature.

From your timezone perhaps?
Well that would be super reliable then, wouldn’t it?
In typical gnome fashion, it will neither be documented, nor configurable.
IP address triangulation, maybe?
John — possible. If it were doing that, it would be showing the temperature of Perth, Western Australia, as that’s where my ISP (iiNet) is located.
