Turkcell, one of the large mobile phone operators, offers its customers in Turkey a really useful text service.

If you text “NEREDE” or "NEREDEYIM" to number 7777 you will receive a text back in around 30 seconds with your GPS coordinates, Town, County and street number.

Note : The coordinates you receive will be for the nearest mobile phone tower and are not triangulated coordinates of your exact location. Nonetheless, another useful service from Turkcell. (KKW)

(For the curious, Nerede is Turkish for Where, Neredeyim is Where am I ?)
