An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number, similar in concept to a telephone number, used by machines (usually computers) to refer to each other when sending information through the Internet. This allows machines passing the information onwards on behalf of the sender to know where to send it next, and for the machine receiving the information to know that it is the intended destination.An example IP address is 207.142.131.236. Converting a number address to a more human-readable form called a domain address (www.wikipedia.org) is done via the Domain Name System. The process of conversion is known as resolution of the domain name. (From Wikipedia). There are many sites out there what give you this info, ipchicken, whatismyip, whatismyaddress etc.
