I used it for a bunch of caches when I first heard about it and it jumps around a bit but is still fairly accurate. I prefered the user interface of c:geo to the Groundspeak app after playing with both. The groundspeak app can also be downloaded at no charge if you have the know how but again, you might be putting your login at risk. Honestly, I think Groundspeak has enough on its plate to worry about the very minor amount of scraping capable by a smartphone but the possibility is there so it needs to be mentioned. Both allow for full cache descriptions, auto decoding of hints, onsite logging, and trackable management. I dont recall if you can load your PQ's into the Groundspeak app but you definitely can do this with c:geo further minimizing any scraping of data. Its all fairly new technology and will only get better down the road. If you'd like screenshots of either app or want the info on getting the Groundspeak app where I got it from, let me know.
I would imagine that past few days have been hectic for you MOU, with the launch of the iPhone. With that said, any info on geo apps for the iPhone?
Everyone has the right to be an idiot at times. Just don't abuse the privilege.
