The way the cache is found is by leaving a card in another cache, at a public place or by posting your TextCache™ Code on your MySpace etc...

Once this TextCache™ Code is found, the finder will then send a text message to the short code 41411 with the keyword cache and your TextCache™ Code. The service will then search our database and text back the coordinates that you set when you made your TextCache™ Code.
