Introduction

I'm Mark and I live within the London West graticule. Being in a graticule adjacent to the meridian I hope some time to achieve a multihash

I'm hoping to put some more detail on this page soon, but for starters I discovered Geohashing via the T-Mobile G1 app when searching for xkcd apps and it merges my fondness for experimental travel and xkcd. Perfect.

After weeks of joking and threats to friends I finally completed my virgin Hash Attempt on May 31, 2009 and have the appetite for more. Unwittingly I might have set a few hares running with the distance - more detail on my talk page.
