Shortcut to directly link Australia Post Tracking Number in the URL

The Australia Post tracking page is a place to monitor items that are being tracking using their tracking numbers.

The page consists of a form with fields and buttons, click, type, click, wait....

Some times it is important to send this tracking number to a customer, but to have them reenter a number into a form is not efficient.

Here is a way of integrating the tracking number directly to the URL via a query.

auspost.com.au/track/track.html?id=XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Where XXXXXXXXXXXXX is the tracking number.

Be sure to try it before sending it off to people via email.

By the way, make sure that you lodge each satchel at a post office, instruct the postal clerk to scan the item into the system, therefore you get a tracking event created when the item was sent ;)

Geo Locate Wifi Routers using andriodmap

This proof of concept site http://samy.pl/androidmap/ works very well in finding wifi routers.  It does this by gathering google information obtained from android devices.


So perhaps you are trying to hone in on the location of a nearby AP.  If you have the BSSID then you can punch it in to get a ball park of the location.  It is a great wardriving recon application.



Try it out for yourself, all you need is the mac address of your router.  I got this mac from the example page on the interweb.
