RE: how do i find my EXACT location?
ermm... sorry... but... GOOGLE IT :D

.....

google: "longitude"

http://www.maporama.com/share/*
http://www.bcca.org/misc/qiblih/latlong.html
http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001769.html
http://www.heavens-above.com/countries.asp
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/latlong.adp
etc... etc...
(took me only 10secs to come up with that)

Also most router programs can show the locations in longitude & latitude...
Also you can aways go to your town hall to ask (or lookup) the exact longitude & latitude of your city or street or whatever...

* example of maporama, my own house:

If you want it to be more accurate you'll need to use a GPS.

I think the funnest way is to use Google Earth to actually try and spot your house. I did this trying to find my place and sure it took a while, and I had to find some maps to match them up, but I eventually got there afer an hour or so. Its a great way to learn the geography of where you live.
