The idea is that between cell phone, vhf and hf coverage there should always be something out there that can pick up our location. I've written something using the Google App Engine that will poll for my position once a day and make it available on https://whereami-167313.appspot.com/ (there should be a link to it on this blog).
Time will tell if it's going to work or not. It depends on me setting up a RaDAR station and sending out a beacon when there's no other coverage. It also assumes that the code I hastily threw together works. It also assumes that I'm able to update it with HAM call-signs I get assigned in the countries I'm visiting while we're on the move.
