Re: Accidental! Okay, two thoughts here

It cross references broadcasting wifi access points to determine a users location. The iPhone 2G had this before they started integrating GPS. The W3C has a whole Geo spec they are working on here: »www.w3.org/2003/01/geo/

Or if you're using a modern browser on a computer with wifi, say Chrome or Firefox, go to maps.google.com and click on the little dot on the left side of the map above the Gold Guy's head. A second later I'm zoomed in on my house. It works better in populated areas of course.
