[ANN] GeoBuddy acquired by TopoGrafix

[+TresOkies]

I'm pleased to announce that TopoGrafix has acquired the source and rights to GeoBuddy. GeoBuddy started out as a collection of small apps that I wrote for my own use and grew into something that was useful by many. The feedback and support I received was incredible and I appreciate all the support and feedback.

 

About two months ago, I realized that I could not develop or maintain GeoBuddy properly with my commitments to my family, my employer and my community. I began looking for candidates to take over and that's when TopoGrafix stepped in.

 

TopoGrafix needs no introduction from me. They do a great job writing quality software for GPS owners and the support is outstanding. I will let them make their own announcements regarding the future of GeoBuddy.

From this point on, I will simply be another geocacher who occasionally forgets what poison ivy looks like.

Congrats on the ground floor development of a fabulous product. The marriage between TopoGrafix and GeoBuddy is an extremely logical one, as I could not use either one independently.

 

Thanks for all of your hard work.

 

Hope you got everything you wanted out of the transaction, too!

This is great! I've been using Geobuddy to solve deficiencies in EasyGPS and Panterra. I can only hope that version 2.0 takes that further!

 

Cheers,

Your Geobuddy program was a indespencible tool for the way I manage waypoints.

I hope you were compensated well for the hard work you put into GeoBuddy.

I'm glad to hear that an organization like Topografix will be carrying on the development of the program - I always used EasyGps with GB anyway so this mariage seems perfect.

 

Thanks again.
