Hey. For the curious, the next features planned for Geohash Droid
(roughly in order of when they might be made):

1. Changing your graticule on-the-fly (that is, without going back to
the main screen): Or more specifically, being able to quickly do
something like "move one graticule south" or similar. Given I happen
to live nearly on the southern border of a graticule and the meetup
point is a lot closer if I go one south, this might be handy.

2. Picture-taking: In a nutshell, taking a picture with the phone's
camera and stamping it with an infobox (the date, your location, the
meetup point, etc). And then posting said picture to the right spot
on the Geohashing wiki. And once I have more time to fiddle with the
1.5 SDK (Cupcake), I'll also tie this in to picture sharing via Picasa
(etc, etc).

3. Background triggering (Geohash Droid as a service): A suggestion
from the comments in the Marketplace. Basically, grab the meetup
point around 9:30am ET when it's posted, then sound off notifications
if you happen to be getting near it. It sounds workable, at any rate.

Enjoy!
