Today I received an email from undercover tourist. Just thought I would share that they have this ap available. It might make a dismeet more possible. What does everyone think?
Here is the info (copied from the email)
How to use 'Find a Friend':
Have everyone in the group download Undercover Tourist's iPhone app . (Remember, there is a FREE version.)
Access the 'Find a Friend' feature by tapping the 'Location' icon at the bottom left of the home screen, then the 'Friend Finder' from the 'Location' screen.
App ImageOne person in the group (we'll call them the Group Leader) creates a group. To do this the Group Leader taps 'Create a Group' from the 'Find a Friend' screen then enters the appropriate information like name and phone number (optional).
Now that a Group has been created, the Group Leader will receive a Pin # that the other Group Members will use to join the group. (There's an option to email the Pin # to other Group Members, but if everyone is together, the Group Leader can just verbally share the Pin #.)
To join the group, the Group Members tap the 'Join the Group' option from the 'Find a Friend' page then enter the Group's Pin #, his/her name and phone number.
TA DA! Each Group Member is assigned a different color pin that will show up on the park map. (There's a handy legend at the bottom of the screen so you know who belongs to what color pin.)
That sounds cool we are willing to download it! I hope that your feeling a little better!
[COLOR="PurpleI think that we can drag it out if we all do our PTR's in domino order so that they aren't going on all at once--- so who's getting there first Ann? So Ann, me, Amy, Ashley and then I'm sorry but we saved the best TR for last.... Tammie!!! Anyone else coming will fit into that and we can drag this over a year and a half![/COLOR]
feeling a bit better today.... thank you.
I think Steve would have to download it for me... I don't have an android or iphone...or I think the other option was blackberry. Still, if it is free, I can't see why he would have a problem with it. let me know if you want to do this![]()
I am still trying to find those great southwest deals yesterday! I was hoping for a good price for San Diego...remember I have about $100 in credit for each of us...but looks like all that will get us is roundtrip to Dallas (not much fun for us) and not even 1 way to San Diego!
I am already dreaming of a girls trip in 2013...think we can all stay together that long...or drag out our TR until it is time to start the 2013 joint PTR!
The deal I found for the 101 rt was on alaska... so that doesn't help you.
I agree on the 2013 trip! We all just need to drag out our TRs until it is time to book and plan. Lets seeI will have 14 days to report... so one a week... that is 14 weeks. Hmm... then if I divide it by two and do half a day a week.. that make 28 weeks. So a good six months. Ok... not sure if I can do it but it is worth a try.

You figure out a plan and I will follow. Right now... I have to admit it was all the math and thought i could do to see how long I alone could drag out my TR.

Hope you are feeling better today. We are at the 1 week mark today!!!! How is the packing going? I'm going to start today. I have a few things that I repacked as soon as we got home last time.
Yesterday was a cold day in central Florida. We woke up to 46 degrees. Anakin was suppose to go on a homeschool field trip, but it was cancelled because they felt it was too cold for meeting outside for his social group. Today it's going up to 80!!!
Parade taping is this weekend. It's all the buzz that Justin Beiber checked in yesterday. We are heading to a park this afternoon. I've never gone to a park on taping day. Usually avoided it, but I'm curious to go to the MK. Sometimes they do the Christmas parade again after taping. My parents had the pleasure of seeing it one year after taping.
Okay I hope you all still love me after I admit this... but I'm totally jealous to not be in MK with Justin Bieber around...
It's not that I have a thing for <ahem> teenage boys because I don't... but I think he's cute as a bug... and I like his hair.![]()
I think we could all drag them out that long as much as we all chit chat lol! We need to get thinking about this trip!
Lol That's a lot of time Ann!!! As slow as I update my PTR I could make mine last a while too!
Again all that chit chat from all of us will drag 'em each out! Cause we only need to drag it out to this time next year!
Love the idea... until I read the part in the later post about the battery draining. lol Mine doesn't need any help!
7 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe you are down to one week or 7 days. You must be getting so excited.
How is everyone feeling?
I loved the ap idea too. I already have the UT apps for both US and WDW. And then when you posted that Steve said it would drain the batteries, I was like "yeah, but you can turn off your location finder except for the time you need to find someone". But then, stupid me, I realized that EVERYONE has to have their location finder on if ANYONE is going to be able to find them!
So, back to the text tree...
