Lord Elwood - who has been geocaching
since 2003 - is going to be coming down from Fort Wayne to present
this GSAK 101 event. GSAK is "Geocaching Swiss Army Knife" - an
extremely versatile software tool for managing all of your
geocaching needs. However, it is so versatile, it can be
intimidating for the new user - hence, this event.
We will begin with about a 45 minute presentation about GSAK.
This presentation is intended as a beginners introduction on how to
use GSAK. If people are looking for advanced topics like macro
writing, they will be disappointed. If they want to know how to
open pocket queries, modify cache information, load GPS devices and
PDAs, and where to find and run pre-made macros, then this is the
presentation for them. Following the presentation, there will be
time for questions and discussion.
Those posting "Will Attend" logs are welcome to pose questions
or identify things they would like help with. Lord Elwood will
either work those into the presentation, or they may be able to be
addressed in the Q & A time afterwards.
TeamMCH will be serving as host. There will be a wireless router
set up for participants to access the internet. Participants may
bring their laptops with GSAK loaded up and actively access the
GC.com database during the event. For those without a laptop, there
may be the possibility of moving some computers with GSAK installed
into the event room - contact TeamMCH for details.
***** Update Jan 30th *****
There is now an evening event scheduled in the room we are using,
so we do now need to have an end time for the event. Let's call it
5:00 - which just happens to be the start time of the "Let's Eat!"
event (GC3AANC) just down the street. So if you want to continue
conversations about GSAK exploits, that would be a good place to do
it!
