Recently I had twitted (no such word?) on twitter "I came across a GPS software for geocaching for windows mobile. It is free and speaks to you as well! http://www.basicgps.co.uk/"

Geocaching involves locating hidden treasures using a GPS enabled device. It is a fun activity with varying levels of difficulty.  I installed the software on my HTC Touch Diamond (running Windows Mobile) and in no time was able to setup a geocache location. To find a geocache closer to my location, I use http://www.geocaching.com/ . The basic service is free.

For geocaching the following are the steps:

 

  1. Install GPS software for geocaching. For my windows mobile, I use ttp://www.basicgps.co.uk/"
  2. Find a geocache location from geocaching.com or similar service. What you need is the latitude and longitude of the geocache
  3. Enter the geocache coordnates onto your mobile phone (in the gps software as per Step 1)
  4. Follow the gps software compass and the voice prompt to find the geocache
The GPS software has also google maps view. But, for me, it was fun just to navigate without the google maps refernce. Geocaching.com has instructions and offers excellent resources, A to Z, on geocaching.
