Are there any other geohashers around here? If so, you might be interested to know that today's Boston, MA geohash is on Broadway in Somerville!
I've started an expedition page here: http://wiki.xkcd.com/geohashing/2010-11-06_42_-71
I'll be there at about 4:00 PM, which is only an hour away -- should have posted this in the morning.
(Explanation for everyone else: Geohashing is a random adventure sport started by Randall Munroe's XKCD comic. An algorithm generates coordinates daily for each 1 x 1 latitude/longitude square on the planet. You try to get to the nearest one whenever possible, sometimes ending up in places you never knew existed.)
