The folks at Groundspeak pushed out an update to the geocaching.com website today around 1 P.M. EST. The most obvious new feature to geocachers is the new wizard for submitting a new cache listing.
The old version of the form is still the default way to submit a new listing, but on that page there is a link for the beta version of the new page.
The biggest difference is the much smoother flow to the wizard compared to the long for that we are used to using. While it takes some getting used to to click from one section to the other it does seem to be clearer for users. I clicked through the wizard with some dummy information and stopped right before the final submission and my first impression is that it is much easier to use. We are planning on hiding some caches this weekend so I will try both methods back to back to better document the differences.
Groundspeak has some additional notes on the new release on the Latitude 47 blog and they are inviting geocachers to leave comments on the new form.
I would love to hear any first impressions any readers have on the comments below.
