Our forty-fourth beta show talks about Earthcaching and the gear to help you. Before we talked with ClickChik we had a stack of feedback to address. yraft kicked off the feedback mentioning the Tread Lightly campaign in response to our Beta.42 show. debaere called in to let us know that the Google speech recognizer runs on the phone as of Android 4.1, a correction to DarrylW4's comments in Beta.43. Lafitefl and Nighthawk700 shared their stories relating to that show as well. Finally we fielded questions from TeamOrville and *TnT* on CacheSense for Android. Moving into Earthcaching we started with some questions by Lafitefl which we answered using "3.2. Logging of Non-Physical Geocaches" and "5.4. Creating an EarthCache: Additional Tips" of Groundspeak's Help Center, and "GSA EarthCache Guidelines." We also heard from kristaandgeoff and Nighthawk700about what's in their Earthcache Kit.
All seven of our contributors have been entered into the holiday giveaways. Thanks to Magellan, listeners all over the world have the chance to win an eXplorist GC. Brand 44 Colorado was also kind enough to provide a Geomate.jr with Update Kit, Geomate Large Log Cache, and a Geomate Gnome Cache for those within North America. Along with those four awesome gifts, the hosts of the GeoGearHeads will be pitching in a few items themselves to be given away through a drawing on Episode Beta.48 (November 29, 2012) (details available here).
