It simply assumes that the world is flat and draws a line from point A to point B (Mecca). This is a common misconception in calculating the qibla, rising from the fact that all maps show the world as flat for ease of use, whereas it is in fact close to an Oblate spheroid (a rounded shape with a bulge around the equator). If you want to get a correct approximation of the qibla, take a blowup spherical world map and use a string to find the direction from the desired point to Mecca. You will then see that the calculations according to this site are incorrect. QiblaDirection.com does not provide the correct location for the Qibla.

I quite like it because it's mobile phone friendly and also provides the prayer times for the location you specify. Here's another. QiblaDirection.com.
