It turns out that the people who own whatismyip.com have decided to change up their design and go with a tabbed layout that makes their site look respectable. The other tabs have command line entries that you can make on various machines to give your ip address as well as a tab that explains the concepts of IP addresses.

They still have your IP address displayed proudly in a giant h1 tag dead center. They also upgraded to video advertising!

I wonder how much money they make off that site…

In case you were wondering, you can always use PHP to give/get the visitors IP address:

<? echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];?>
