Finally, the official Geocaching.com iPhone app is available on the iPhone App Store. It costs a grand total of £5.99 in the UK ($9.99 in the US). The app promises to be the first to link directly into the Geocaching.com website and bring you real-time cache details based on your current GPS coordinates (unlike the [...]
After the last post I made, Geocaching.com have announced that they have submitted a Geocaching app to the Apple Appstore. It’s currently awaiting approval, but should be available soon. It will cost $9.99 (probably £5.99 in the UK). It basically does something very similar to iGeocaching, but allows you to do it online, so is [...]

The site lets me create maps using Google Maps, Microsoft Virtual Earth, or Openstreet, and bung all sorts of markers etc onto them. Afterwards, I can stick them straight into a post on this site. I [...]
Seems like the IS someone developing a Geocaching app for the iPhone.

At the moment it’s quite basic, with no GPX or LOC support, which means you have to enter coordinates manually. Once it has support for those files, and support for saving cache details etc, then it could turn ito a nice little app.  I’ll [...]
Above are a pair of pictures taken yesterday in Three Cliff bay on the Gower Peninsula in South Wales. They are the newest entries in the ‘Landscapes and Seascapes’ section in the galleries (to be found to your right!). Was fantastic light this afternoon.
