I've got to talk about TiVo some more and how easy it makes to watch TV.  Plus if anyone is interested in Geocaching..please read on.

Two years ago I created an "auto-record, keyword wish list" for "Geocach*".  What this does (like with a search engine) will keep an eye on the show listings for shows who have the character string "Geocach" in either their title or description.  We got our first hit on 1/15 from the DIY Network.  It was "Family Outdoors" episode FAO-205 on Geocaching.  Please notice that today is 1/21, six days after it aired and gone off into the great airwaves in the sky.  I still haven't watched it yet but plan to this weekend.

I didn't even know DIY had this show.  In this episode they go through the Orienting the GPS, a Geocaching Primer, a family Geocaching adventure, and stashing a Geocache.  After I watch the show, if it's any good, I may put a season pass on this show since we like to do things outdoors with our family.

So, from having a TiVo with some logic I get to enjoy a show on a topic I am interested in that I wouldn't have even known was on.  In return, DIY has gotten me to go to their website to find out more about the Outdoor Family show, maybe get me to record the show on a regular basis, and at the same time get me see their ads on their website and some commercials in fast-forward.

I think that's a pretty good trade.  For anyone else that maybe interested it is going to be aired again on 3/26.
