Title: Geocaching!
Post by: russian roulette on June 01, 2010, 09:00:18 PM
What are you guy's thoughts on the world-wide scavenger hunt known as Geocaching? I went out today and the adventure is pretty fun, lots of different places to go to. http://www.geocaching.com/ (http://www.geocaching.com/)

Basically you enroll on a site (either geocaching or my favourite, opencaching). You can then view a map of the world with a lot of caches (usually tupperware containers with hidden gifts inside). You then get a handheld GPS unit, put in the coordinates and use them to hunt down the cache (sometimes it's not exact, some of the caches move...). Once you found it, you can take anything from it provided you put in something else. It's a very fun way to connect IRL via the internet.

Not as fun as you'd think it would be.

EDIT: I screwed up on this quote thing. Nevermind.
