Garmin vs. Groundspeak

In case you missed it, there's been something of a Goliath vs. David business battle going on between Groundspeak, the small Seattle-based company that owns and manages Geocaching.com, and Garmin, the large company that makes the best (in my opinion) consumer GPS devices and has attempted to get its own geocaching listing service -- OpenCaching.com -- off the ground. One of my fellow reviewers, Nick Brown, who is a reviewer in France, wrote this very insightful article about the whole mess. It's worth a read. What do you think? Have you used OpenCaching.com?

  1. I've used every listing site out there. Not too impressed with OC.com, not to be confused with OC.us. It's too bad though that the ones that will suffer are the ones that have bought Garmin equipment.
