How Does GPS Work?

I stumbled upon this video and would like to show it to Troop 88, but I'm hoping they're here looking at it...

Unimoggers' New Pathtag!


What took me so long to get a Pathtag? I wanted something dynamic and couldn't get a bar code that would work that small, so when I finally had time, I created the QR. Now I can change my message daily as folks pick up the new tag and are directed here.

Before ordering the tag, I spoke with a salesman at Pathtag after I submitted it just to make sure it would read. He couldn't guarantee anything, but I figured what the heck. It's only a Pathtag and it's the first QR. Imagine my disappointment when it wouldn't work on my iPhone's application QRReader. But then MrMogger tried it on his Iphone QR reader and it worked.

All was not lost. I realized that a person could log my pathtag and read it from the website. So now I have a reason to keep up with this blog. The first and last entry was May 2007. I've been busy.
