+mr_candyman Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) you need to turn on instant notifications, since you're a premium member you can do that http://www.geocaching.com/notify/ Edited May 23, 2007 by mr_candyman Quote Link to comment
+Miragee Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 How is it that some people know about newly published caches within hours?? There must be a secret that I need to know! Within hours?? Around here, it is within minutes, and if the cache is in town, a "Mini-Event" is likely to occur with all the FTF hounds arriving almost simultaneously. Insta-Notify is just what you are looking for. Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 We just sit around the computer till a new one pops up . Some cachers have Blackberrys and other nifty portable devices that provide alerts when an email arrives. I have heard about how some email programs can text message you with incoming mail. There is also a nifty program available that kinda combines these features for those that do not have portable internet access. I don't want to say more lest it adversely affect my FTF chances .

+tsemclarney Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 OrrKids, if your from central or south New Jersey please do not use instant notifications, as you will mess with my chances at FTF's Just kidding, good luck with your hunt for FTF's you can get more hooked no them then caching itself. tsemclarney 193 finds 12FTF's Quote Link to comment
