Getting the best information and applying it to the right problem at hand is one of the areas that I love about the Internet.  It enables this in ways not yet completely understood.

Sometimes I see this when I decide to read all my RSS feeds instead of deleting them outright because I don’t have time.  And then while I am making this time from solving some other problem, I’ll be rewarded with a nugget of info that is actually a problem solver to something else or maybe to the problem I was worried about enough to consider deleting my unread RSS.

The same is true to a degree with comments to RSS posts.  Most readers of an RSS don’t see them, and that is a shame.  For instance, this one from Tom is great if you are thinking about getting a GPS unit:

The eXplorist is not the best Magellan product. Best being
a subjective term. The eXplorist series is a very pretty, easy to use entry
level GPS with a big price. If you were to look at Magellan products that give
you the maximum flexibility between city directions and wilderness orienteering
you would want something like the Magellan SporTrak color or Meridian color. My
big issue with the eXplorist is that it does not support the many other map
datums such as Lat/Lon, UTM, OSGB, MGRS, Swiss, Irish, Finnish, German, Swedish,
French, USNG, User Grid that when you truly NEED a GPS you will have to have.
Example Lat/Lon is aviation oriented, giving someone these coordinates over a
cellphone a helicopter can come rescue you. Also, UTM is the military version
and all Search and Rescue teams use these coordinates. If you ever imagine
yourself out of the city and in the wilderness I would make sure that my GPS has
these datums and that I take the 10 minutes reading the manual to understand how
to enable them. Cheers, Tom
