What is the quickest way to make my ASP.NET application location aware? I have seen some API examples that are in C++ and not able to load into an ASP.NET application. Are there other ways to go about this? I just need to be able to get a general location of my users (city level or lower). Getting a ZIP code would be ideal.

The best idea would be GeoLocate the user to his country based on his IP. At the most, It is also possible to track-down the user to his city but the accuracy is always doubtful.You can find some information on this here.

Try googleing for free GEOIP databases. Here is one: link text I've used these db's to get user's general area to determine what marketing is working for customers.

Good Luck!
