+ShmilyNMe Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 "Demand" is such a strong word...us Southerners prefer "pretty please with sugar on top"! Quote Link to comment
+carleenp Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I don't mind being demanding. Quote Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Couldn't figure out how to make a demand in Kansas City. But I did create a demand. Quote Link to comment
Jeremy Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Couldn't figure out how to make a demand in Kansas City. But I did create a demand. There's a link on the right that asks if you wish to demand it in another area. It's not as obvious as I'd like. Quote Link to comment
+BuckyD Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Good gravy! I need to register with an email address on an unwanted site (that has teeny tiny opt-out checkboxes) to indicate a demand for a Groundspeak product?!?! There has got to be a better way... Quote Link to comment
+MissJenn Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Clarification: This is to indicate a demand for Groundspeak presence. Also, you ( From: SF Bay Area, CA ) don't have to demand anything. Meet & Greet Groundspeak & Garmin in the Bay Area is already scheduled. Quote Link to comment
delta123 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Could you please come to the Netherlands ? Quote Link to comment

Meet & Greet Groundspeak & Garmin in the Bay Area is already scheduled. Actually the demand is for us to build a cartridge in your area. And we have certainly built them in places we haven't physically been to. In the past we have used local geocachers to survey the area and help us test. Quote Link to comment
+NevadaWolf Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 In the past we have used local geocachers to survey the area and help us test. Where's that button!?! I wanna do that!! (kidding, I know where the button is) Sadly I think I'm one of maybe 2 in my area that is capable of doing this. Few even use a PPC/Palm, and I've only heard of one other with a BT GPS. I don't think the demand is going to be high enough here. YET!!! Quote Link to comment

The Wherigo team will host an event where you will learn to build and play Wherigo Cartridges. We hope to see you in 2008! So is the demand for Groundspeak to create a cartridge in your area or to sponsor an event (similar to the Bay area event)? I read the above and assumed it was to host/sponsor an event in your area - that's why I created a Boston area demand and what I've been telling people local. Please clarify.

Jeremy Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well, the reality is we would like to do both. So depending on the demand we could both create a cartridge and have a Builder workshop at the location. If the request is for the other side of the world we would probably do just a cartridge in the area. But who knows? If there's enough demand we would go pretty much anywhere. Quote Link to comment

Can you give us any idea as to what the "critical mass" for either of these options (cartridge/workshop) might be? GO$Rs Edit: cleaned up a bit.

At this point, 100 people would be a good threshold on the Eventful Demand list. We know that if there are enough people willing to jump through hoops to demand it that there is a possible larger group interested as well. However it is just an arbitrary number. We're already planning on going to some major cities throughout the year. Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 ....So I doubt asking you to show up at the local donut shop/bakery in Bridgeport Nebraska is gonna happen?? (really good donuts) Quote Link to comment
+Red Rose Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I added a "demand" for the Midwest Geobash in Kenallville, IN. August 7-10 http://eventful.com/demand/D0-001-001344541-5 Quote Link to comment

+coreynjoey Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Just wanted to say we had a great time at the Seattle Groundspeak/Garmin event! The Groundspeak crew, Wherigo team, and Garmin rep were all awesome. Playing the Wherigo cartridge on the Garmin Colorado was pretty sweet! Loved the intro showing the old text-based games....those were the days! Now we're off to work on building a cartridge!! And thanks for finding our Blackberry!!! We just got it last night and we're already losing it.... Quote Link to comment
