For the two
hundred sixtieth edition of the GeoGearHeads
ChrisOfTheNorthWest,
DarrylW4, and gslink&slinkymama
(of "Geocache Talk")
take on a variety of topics. The first item on the agenda was a
correction by
Sherminator18 to "GGH 252:
Virtual Caching Bag I." Sadly the one feature of
Cachebot that had made it a recommendation (the push
notifications) have been removed and will not be coming back. So
that app is off the suggested apps list. Then
L&N Railroad continued with more information about the
FRS/GMRS bands and licenses in the U.S.
JerseyEric had an issue with the Demo Mode on Garmin eTrex
line. There wasn't much about it in the user
manual or
GPS Mode Settings. On an important, but non-Geocaching related
point,
Wanzong asked about password managers. "1Password" and "LastPass" were the popular ones
DarrylW4 initially suggested. The guys also found the How-To Geek
"Password
Managers Compared: LastPass vs KeePass vs Dashlane vs
1Password" and the "How Secure Is My
Password?" site. Back to Geocaching –
MO Baggins shared his "DGS:
The Dirtbags TB Safehouse" (GC6R759) which he setup in his
yard. Gary shared the iMore "Best
Touchscreen Gloves for Winter" article. Then last up was the
news about that "Galileo
declares Initial Services" from GPS World and the "Russian
resupply ship destroyed en route to International Space
Station" from Engadget. Team
MavEtJu reminded us to mention the Geocaching
Australia Summer Scavenger Series.
The live video session from this Google+ Hangout On Air can be
found on YouTube.
