127.0.0.1
That's some IP address, eh? Found on my StatCounter tracking list.


I wonder where this is?

Barry popped by and left a comment (which is always a treat!) :

127.0.0.1 is the standard IP address used for a loopback network connection.

This means that if you try to connect to 127.0.0.1, you are immediately looped back to your own machine.

If you telnet, ftp, etc... to 127.0.0.1, you are connected to your own machine.In other words, 127.0.0.1 is you.

In this case, of course, it is likely to be someone who for reasons of their own is masking their IP address. Though I suppose it's just barely possible that you've got a fan at Blogger who reads your blog directly from the console of the server that hosts it. :-)

I had no idea. I'm such a net idiot that I didn't know someone else could loop me. I read through the article on the link. Fascinating!
