This page was created so that a standardised format could be decided on for Geohashing groups on Facebook, as well as a place to collect a list of links to current groups.
"Standardised format" mainly refers to the name and type of the group. Please feel free to add arguments for and against each possible standardisation.
Possible name formats
Geohashing - [Town/City/Area]
[Town/City/Area] Geohashers
Because there are some towns/cities with the same name, but in different countries, [Town/City/Area] would work best if you use what Facebook gives you when you start typing in their "City/Town:" box.
For example:
"Toronto, ON" refers to Toronto, ON, Canada
while
"Toronto, Australia" refers to Toronto, New South Wales, Australia
