I am a geohasher from [[Cleveland, Tennessee|West Knoxville, TN]]. I found out about geohashing on [http://digg.com/ digg]. [http://xkcd.com/ xkcd] is usually on the '''Top Stories''', so I clicked on the link and had my little laugh. I was in quite the inquisitive mood that day, which led me to Wikipedia searching the origins of xkcd. After reading a little about [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randall_Munroe Randall Munroe], I came across a link to geohashing. Here, my adventures began!

My first ever '''hash''' was attempted and succeeded on [[2009-11-27 35 -84|November 27th, 2009]].

You are more than welcome to contact me via e-mail or my [http://www.facebook.com/bdaughe5/ Facebook] page.
