    Geocaching Blogs

    I'll agree. There is a significant difference between a cache log and a personal blog about geocaching. Cache logs are there to track caches, blogs are there to allow individuals to share what is on their minds - in this case also about geocaching in general.

    Micro's ?

    I just found three nano/micro caches in my area just this week and LOVED it. The first one was a standard "light post" cache, but took me almost 30 minutes to find it. Somehow, this guy made the nano container look like the end of a bolt. WOW! Talk about a find!

    Trade Items Tracking

    Can a feature be added to track trade items? The L could be a blank for a short description and the T could be a dropdown from the remaining L submissions. Then, people could search for a particular trade item key word. For instance, if I am about to do a night cache and I can search local caches that have glow sticks, it would be really cool.

    I want to let everyone know that I just bought CacheMate and used it with Pocket Queries to find two caches very easily by having the information right at my fingertips when I needed it. Also, I use a Handspring Visor and HandyGPS. With CacheMate's plugins, I was able to copy and paste the coordinates from CacheMate to my GPS navigation application.

     

    I finally have my GeoCaching All-In-One solution!!!!!

    You should check out Cachemate and its associated plug-in.  It only costs $8 which is a really really good deal.  It will offer all-in-one capability.  You will be able to manage the cache waypoints, complete with description, hints, past logs, sort per name, wpt, distances and the beauty of it all is while viewing the cache description, press NAV and it will provide nav guidance to the cache, which rivals if not better than any GPS out there.

    Thanks for all of this great info. I just tested out CacheMate and the CacheNav plugin, but it crashes my PDA when I launch CacheNav with the GPS attached. Some sort of communication error there for sure. The other thing I am having trouble with is getting the coordinates converted to dec for my built-in software with my HandyGPS. Is there an easy way to copy and convert coords from CacheMate to another Palm navigation app? The only way I can think of is with a pen and paper which defeats my whole plan of a paperless cache.

    Does anyone use a device like the Handspring Visor or another Palm-based PDA with a GPS attachment to seek caches, download waypoints, track finds, follow TBs, etc? Also, any applications that can record log data in the field and upload to GeoCaching.com? I use a HandyGPS with my Handspring Visor and love it, but so far, I haven't found any other applications that do everything else on my one PDA.
