User Behavior Assumptions
- User selects LOCATION=STATE,CITY pair when registering
- If UNLOGGED-IN-USER selects LOCATION use this as computer LOCATION and save as PERMANENT-LOCATION-COOKIE
- If a user registers and there are no PERMANENT-LOCATION-COOKIES then set the PERMANENT-LOCATION-COOKIE as what he registered with.
- If the user logs in use the computer PERMANENT-LOCATION-COOKIE as the LOCATION.
Proposed-Features
- IP ADDRESS versus geolocation database
- DB-RECORD = [ IP-ADDRESS, STATE , CITY , LATITUDE, LONGITUDE ]
Design Conclusions
- Put a very visible location interface on the front page
