Geocaching is a really cool hobby where somebody hides a container, sometimes so small it only fits a tiny bit of paper for a log all the way up to ammo cans (sometimes larger). They then post the coordinates of the container on a geocaching website where other people then try to find it. One

I love geocaching with my G1 using GeoBeagle. It is a great phone with GPS abilities, and of course GeoBeagle is the best program out there for the Android platform for geocaching (plus, it’s free).

Ari and I went geocaching Saturday (Sara decided to stay home and have some Sara time) and Ari played a bit in the park. We still don’t have a GPS, so I still rely on Google Maps or Google Earth to locate things before I leave the house. First we went for and got, The

I talked how I was wanting to learn Java, so I could start making programs for the Android mobile phone platform. A project that I thought of, but is perhaps beyond my ability for any time soon, is an application that will tie in with MySpace, Facebook and expendable to other social network websites. Basically,
