xkcd-reader from germany, living in west Hamburg. In times of global warming, I refuse to waste fuel on Geohashing, so I decided to get to Hashes in range by bike. For your information, as of July 2008, standard fuel (91 ROZ) is 1.55 EUR per Litre ^= 2.53 AUD per Litre ^= 2.45 USD per Litre ^= 9.27 USD per US-Gallon in Germany.

You can speak to me in the #geohashing IRC channel or at my Teamspeak (teamspeak://hehoe.de). I can have a look at your geohashing oriented PHP, C++ or Python code (and there is a small possibility that I can improve it).

Contributions

I run the Google Maps service for generating overviews containing geohashing locations.
I adapted Douglas Adams' "Nad": In geohashing, you call it Geonad.
This wxPython powered App alerts me whenever todays geohash is close.

Hashes I've not been to

These hashes were in range, but I have not visited them because...

04. Jun. 2008	An apple tree in someones backyard in "Tornesch".	I was hashing the previous day so I decided to skip that one.
16. Jun. 2008	Fallow ground near "Heist".	I was on vacation in Sweden.
06. Jul. 2008	A small pond near Ellerbeck.	It was raining.
10. Aug. 2008	East of "Elmshorn".	And it was raining again...
11. Aug. 2008	Near "Rhen", north of "Norderstedt".	Raining again...
12. Aug. 2008	South of "Tornesch".	I was busy fixing my computer and checked the coordinates too late.
