Ignore the specifics of this (unless you're really interested in Geolocation APIs) and head straight for the diagram of Yahoo's FireEagle service half way down the article. You can even blot out in your mind anything about FireEagle. What is important here is how the diagram neatly shows the way different devices interface with the platform.
This diagram is generically true - it doesn't matter what the platform (FireEagle or Google or whatever) and it doesn't matter what the application (Location information, or whatever), the system always looks like this. Clip and save for your 'future of the web' presentations.
