The Austin Graticule

The Austin, Texas graticule is located around latitude 30, longitude -97. This area is mostly land, but does include a number of lakes. The graticule contains a mix of both urban and country locations which should lead to an interesting mix of meeting places.

Today's Location: [Austin, TX]

Geohashers

  • Noname Never done this before; thought I might give it a try if the location's convenient. Anyone going 8/2/08?
  • Moonwick I'm thinking of trying to make it out for 5/24/08 at 4PM; anyone else going to be there?  :)
  • mrusso I'm in for some Saturdays at 4PM. I'll post on my profile page if I'm going to make it.
  • Dustbin Saturdays at 4PM sounds good
  • Shinwa I'll be out on Saturdays, and most weekdays (after 5). I hope to see people there!
  • JeWeY I can make it this Friday (5-23-2008) shortly after 5
  • Meat.Paste I showed a little late at the saturday meetup, but no one was there.
  • icicole I'd be up for the official meetup this Saturday (5/31). I also would be up for any lunchtime picnicky meetups during the week, especially if they're in the southeastern quadrant (I work near ABIA).
  • s3g2 will try to make himself available for Saturday meetups and any other convenient hashes.
  • Jon the Geek has a conflict most Saturdays at 4, but will work on remedying that.
  • Peekay I may be there at 4 PM for the 31st; more likely to make it to the weekend after that.
  • Eddo Work 9-5 Mon-Fri but am always looking for great stuff to do on the weekends!
  • Scherzade and two other Jacksonville, FL XKCD fans will be in the Austin, TX graticule on Saturday, 8/16. We would love to meet up if you guys are going to be there.
