  1. Location aware computing is a field of computer science where a lot of research is taking place. There are a lot of different ways to find location but one of the best ways in an urban area is by use of WIFI. WIFI can be used very accurately to get location detail of a very small area while functioning equally well inside a building as outside in the street. WIFI also does not suffer in so called urban canyons as GPS does. Place lab is software which implements a large number of functions which facilitates the creation of applications that use WIFI locating. Place lab allows hardware clients such as laptops and PDA devices to locate them selves using radio beacons such as 802.11 access points, mobile phone towers and fixed Bluetooth devices. The aim of our project is to take the placelab software and create a real world useable application. This will be a location aware to-do list, whereby users can set reminders according to location and time.
