Berks joins TheBadCop and DarrylW4 for the
one-hundred thirtieth edition of the GeoGearHeads. This Randomize
shows covered a pile of questions and feedback from the
GeoGearHeads audience. Kristensson
shared a tip about translations while
Nighthawk700 shared how to export a field notes text file from
CacheSense. Brightblades
asked about documenting cache finds and the panel raved about
Evernote for that (and
other) task (check GGHBeta09 for
the episode about Evernote and caching).
Billy Robson shared his success in transferring GPX files from
an iOS device to an SD card for his GPSR using the AirStash and the
iFiles app (also referencing a
Pocketables article). DarrylW4 also caught an
article about another possible option – "RAVPower
RP-WD01 Wireless Filehub / Media Drive."
TeamKross was hoping for help with issues on his Galaxy S4 and
it's compass. Then back on iOS
Brilang was looking for caching apps with driving directions.
Good and bad news there. While the Geocaching apps don't provide
driving directions, most (Geocaching,
Geosphere,
Looking4Cache Pro,
Looking4Cache Lite,
Caches,
Geobucket) will send the waypoint to external apps. The guys
did manage to get some articles in too; "These
phones will survive the apocalypse," "New
sensors will scoop up 'big data' on Chicago," "Google
turns on its crazy modular phone in public for the first time,"
and "Google's
insane all-seeing Project Tango tablet is coming to consumers next
year."
Congratulations to jcoreyc for
submitting the winning answer for this week's question. Thanks to
Project-GC.com for their donation of this week's
