Aquila pronounced AK-weh-lah, uh-KWILL-uh or even a-kee-laa, means eagle in Latin. Just like the eagle, this blog is my “bird’s eye view” on situations or topics that I happen to come across in my daily life.

Found this nifty neat handy little tool that resolves any phone number to its geographical location.
TP2Location is currently still in Beta and the blog is barely 3 days old, but it seems like there’s promise.
Just enter the telephone number in question and voilà - you’re presented with the country code, number type, region, telecom network, related links and country map (from Googlemaps of course).
At present they do support South African phone numbers, but it would be great once the maps show regional/area detail instead of just the country map.
Speaking of Google Maps - did you see the one with some “deal” going down on Google Street View?
