Allright! If you send a GPS guided missile to here, it should land on my
balcony, or something. It's a static address, it doesn't refresh according to
my current position (yet).

That one is to improve Google ranking, as some mailing list software turns
this into a real hyperlinked, to be crawled by web spiders.

This one is a GPG key ID. If you stick it into http://pgp.mit.edu/
(or your mailer automatically gets key it doesn't have in your keyring yet),
you'll get my public key:

This is above key's fingerprint. It's very unweildy to verify above key is
mine over another channel (phone, mail, card, ESP), so you just use the
fingerprint (a kryptographic hash of the key).

If you look into HTML source of http://leitl.org, you'll see

    <meta name="ICBM" content="48.07078, 11.61144">
    <meta name="DC.title" content="leitl.org">

This is for the geourl spider. This way you can query who's in your vicinity:

A poor man's location aware search engine.
