We interrupt our recent policy punditry for some GEAR AND GADGET news…whodathunkit, eh?
Our colleague Captain Richard Rodriguez is debuting a new feature on his BitterEnd blog today:
Tomorrow, Thursday, May 1, 2008 begins my summer Vessel Assist season. I will be using a Spot GPS Tracker this year.
TRACK PROGRESS: Also known as SPOTcastingSM, this feature allows friends and family to follow my progress in real time. I’ll actually use it for the first time on my trip from Anacortes to Friday Harbor aboard Diligence. I’ll be underway between 08:00 and 09:00 local. The trip will take about 3.5 hours.
And there’s a new link featured prominently on the blog:
“Click here to follow me on SPOT.“
It’ll be really interesting to see how SPOT performs in the real world. Thanks for the opportunity, Richard!
