What is GoGeocaching.com about?
Ego caching is a global treasure
hunt game Ego caching is a
location based game where
typically a container such as a
pill bottle, or tuber maid storage
container is placed somewhere
on the planet and coordinates
are published. Other ego
cashers then use those
coordinates to navigate to the
location and sign a log sheet to
prove they were there. There
are many variations on the
game; some ego caches require
solving a puzzle in order to learn
what the coordinates are, others
use web cams, or other high
tech functions of a GPSS or
Smart Phone in order to find the
hidden treasure.
Over the years since the military
satellites were unlocked and
made available for public use
many location based games
have been created. More have
come and gone while ego
caching appears to be here to
stay.
The latest location based game
is Poke man Go which is wildly
popular, it came into being off an
AP called Ingress which is also
still being played by many avid
location based game addicts.
