+JJDP Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Hiya, Ive recently downloaded Google Earth and been very interested in it. Ive been looking up caches in it and checking out where they are. This is fun, and helpful at times. The files that google earth uses are called KML files and can be edited/written to do a number of things. I was wondering if geocaching.com had an RSS feed of new caches. Im triyng to write a plugin type thing that looks up the cache coordinates and makes a placemark on google-earth. Link to comment
+Quiggle Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 JJDP, Not at this time, however Jeremy has indicated in the past that RSS functionality may be added at some point. Moving this to the website forum. Link to comment

I was wondering if geocaching.com had an RSS feed of new caches. Go to your My Account Page, and over on the right you'll see a section titled "Google Mapping Features". Underneath that is Download Geocache browser in Google Earth. I think that is what you really want. Link to comment
