Actually it's not... I went there and it shows that I'm near Dealey Plaza Park in Dallas... and I'm a GOOD 140 miles from there.if you go to this website, it will show a background-image of "Google Maps" which is showing the street-map of your very own city.
So it seems it is somehow pulling the IP of the user and then showing a local map.
How to do something like that ?
