I seem to understand your project differently than Benjw. I thought it was going to direct you in person to the geohash, where his comment implies an independent robot will visit them. Either way, you'll gather a few interesting ribbons. Also are you '''Team Octo''podes''''' or '''Team Octo''pus'''''?  You've used both. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 16:21, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the idea is it's a hand held device that guides you to today's Geohash, it's just a standard GPS device (HP iPAQ rx5900 Travel Companion) but our program is designed specifically for Geohashers.

Hello and welcome! Sounds like an interesting project you'll be doing. I hope you also plan to make it in person to some of the geohashes you investigate! Anyway, sounds like a good helpful program you're thinking about; I look forward to hearing about it. -- Benjw 18:17, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
