    Orphan geocoin

    I have two accounts, and did find it using the other one. The problem is that I do not know the item's identity (not listed on the cache's inventory), a part from the secret number on the back .... You found it using another account? Do you have a link to the traveler? here's the log: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LU...ec-19a1dacfc426 here's a picture: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jfix/3647752593/ and, yes, it has a six character long tracking code starting with SB....

    Orphan geocoin

    I picked up a geocoin in San Francisco recently. Later on, when logging the find, there was no mentioning of this geocoin. Basically, I now have a geocoin orphan which I cannot log or put back into circulation. What can I do? I don't want to keep it. Thanks, Jakob.
  4. Hello, I was just wondering if Groundspeak intend (or have they already done it?!) to open up an API to access information in their database programmatically. See http://programmableweb.com/apilist for a list of sites already doing this. For example, I would like to put a google map on my personal site which shows all the my found/hidden caches, with additional information in the popup bubble, like links to more photos/blog entries etc. At the moment, my only options seems to be to manually download the .loc files or to do what they call "page-scraping". I have seen other sites who re-use geocaching data, and apparently they download big chunks of data on a daily basis (geocaching-france.com, for example). I am a basic member at the moment, and the availability of an API for premium members would be a huge incentive for me to pass premium! Thanks for any ideas/pointers. Cheers, Jakob
