is ProximityCasting something like GeoCaching?

Geocaching has long been popular since affordable GPS has made it possible.

"Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices." You can read more about it at the official Geocaching Website.

Geocaching has gained tremendous traction and has spread across the world.

But not ProximityCasting...(a lonely tear slowly drips down the cheek)

ProximityCasting is a growing treasure hunting game of a different type. Like geocaching you can search for treasure and like geocaching you can provide treasure for others. Search for treasure??? Where is the closest Oyster Bar? What does it look like? Are their any reviews? Can I find it's website?

All right! I see where it is at, but street view didn't make it to the end of Peavine Road, so what does it look like?

Ask and receive:
Wow man! Glad some fellow ProximityCaster took the time to upload that image. That place looks like it's worth a side trip.

Let me check the reviews before I make the jaunt: Reviews are found at the bottom of the ProximityCast Establishment Details Page
Cool! Sounds like a place worth stopping at.

But what about the businesses website? Found on the Details Page Establishment 1501 Website
Just what I needed. Their site has a posted menu too. That closed the deal for me. I'm on my way. I sure appreciate that ProximityCaster that posted this treasure.

So ProximityCasting is both searching for treasure and posting treasure for others.

Now if ProximityCast.com can only gain a little traction so more treasures can be found. Is there an Oyster Bar in your Town?

What do you think? Any resemblance to Geocaching?
