Finding out your IP quick and easy isn’t that difficult since there are a million websites out there that do that for free. It usually comes down to loading one of these webpages and voila, you’re IP is displayed right on the home page alongside one billion of advertisements.
But what if you wish to find your IP even easier, without having to open your browser every time? Meet Get IP, a dedicated application that does just that: it gets your IP.
Since the program has been developed to serve such a simple purpose, it has to be offered with a very clean interface.
And it is, only that the whole interface is actually a tiny dialog in which it shows the hostname and the IP. Plus, it could also display the port your computer uses to connect to the Internet, so it could be really useful some times.
Still can get why you have to drop a dedicated application to do that? Think at gamers for example. If they play multiplayer games every once in a while and their ISP tries to protect its clients by changing the IP at every reboot, a gamer would definitely need such a tool.
Get IP also offers some extra goodies so, besides the fact that it works on virtually all Windows versions out there, it can quietly sleep in the System Tray and pop out whenever you click on it.
There’s also a tiny options menu, but nothing that would impress a geek, so Get IP remains a very, very simple application from all points of views.
