Plans

Expedition

So in the IRC chat room we talked about doing a live streaming geohash expedition. I managed to install the TinyChat app on my Droid and Allison's iPhone and try it. I created a tinychat and a few of our European counterparts, OfficeLinebacker (talk)relet, OfficeLinebacker (talk)crox, OfficeLinebacker (talk)Eupeodes, decided to tune in to a tinychat room.

We gave a few live broadcasts as we drove to Poolesville, MD, about 35 mins away from my house in Rockville, MD. We parked in the parking lot of a little yard that is for Natural Gas and started walking into the woods. We ran into a mother and a daughter and made sure it was OK to walk around back there and they said yes, they were walking to their neighbor's house through the exact same area.

We came to an area in the woods which was behind some houses, but not part of their backyards. There was a big pit in the ground and some run down playhouse type equipment back there. We took our silly grin geohash pic, including the screen of Allison's iPhone with the tinychat room loaded, so everyone made it together. Relet took some screen shots:
