MODULE OF THE WEEK:



Smart IP
www.drupal.org/project/smart_ip
Smart IP identify visitor's geographical location
(longitude/latitude), country, region, city and postal code based
on the IP address of the user. These information will be stored
at session variable ($_SESSION) with array key 'smart_ip' and
Drupal $user->data object with array key 'geoip_location' of
the user but optionally it can be disabled (by role) at Smart IP
admin page. Other modules can use the function
smart_ip_get_location($ip_address) that returns an array
containing the visitor's ISO 3166 2-character country code,
longitude, latitude, region (FIPS), city and postal code. It
provides a feature for you to perform your own IP lookup and
admin spoofing of an arbitrary IP for testing purposes.
