Wireless, Wi-Fi triangulation refers to the technique of triangulation of radio signals to "pinpoint" the location of a wireless user. Triangulation is the process of pinpointing a transmitter by tacking a bearing of the transmitter from two or more fixed points. When the bearings are drawn on a map, the point of intersection is the exact position of the transmitter.

@cloggingchris other location services may be using triangulation and not gps. sometimes takes 2-3 minutes to calibrate w/ satellites

@creditsms depends on density of cell phone towers. If in a dense location, triangulation can be used

@PocketTwit Is there anyway to send location-aware tweets without GPS? Like with cell-site triangulation, or manually?

YES. Android @gowalla update. Please have fixed location triangulation. Seems to be better even before it though. <3
