- On Internet Explorer, the application at xkcd.com/geohashing can give incorrect results, since clicking the "update" button repeatedly will add extra zeroes to the right of the decimal point on the stock market value, leading to a different hash.
- Is this still an issue? I believe it was fixed last night Zigdon 19:18, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- I use IE, and it worked for me just now. --James 01:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- Due to the relative start locations used, if you happen to live close to a coastal region you may require a boat in order to successfully reach the calculated coordinates.
- In addition, due to the relative start locations used, you may require a passport to successfully reach the calculated coordinates.
- Some of the mapping URLs don't cope with -0 as entry, making this grid (eg London West) difficult to map. See -0 Issue.
