About me

My name is Rob, I'm a resident of the Vancouver graticule. I work as a programmer at SFU. I will try to get to most transit accessible geohashes, (+/- a few kilometres of walking never hurt anyone). Maybe a bike in the near future will allow me to join in on the insane bike hashes. Looking forward to trying to get some hashpoints in europe later this summer =)

I have a hate on for wiki discussion pages, which should be forum software, and wiki image uploads, which should be gallery software.

Check out the proposed Travelling Hashman Achievement and offer your support, suggestions, changes, etc.
