Google Shows Your IP Address When You Ask “What Is My IP?”

5. January 2012 in Google | 4 Comments

Every device connected to the public Internet is assigned a unique number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Some people would like to check IP address for certain purpose, normally there will go to some websites that have provided IP address checking to check their IP address. But now, you can use Google to query [ what is my ip ] to get your computer’s public IP address.

What you do is go to google search textbox and type [ what is my ip ] and then your IP will be displayed like below image. I like the new query but I wish those information such as country, ISP, etc can be displayed as well after the query.

    I didnt know Google did that. I always use IP Chicken to check my IP, if I ever need to. This is so much quicker, nice find :)
