topological closeness....

[mo () uunet uu net (Mike O'Dell)]

one other solution (being implemented, I believe), is a DNS server
that listens to the BGP traffic, so it knows how far away things are,
and when you ask it, it can chose from multiple responses to pick
one "close".  

and now that I think about it, it's being implemented more than one place,
from what I've heard.
