ABOUT FOURSQUARE:
Foursquare is a mobile application that makes cities easier to use and more
interesting to explore. It is a friend-finder, a social city guide and a
game that challenges users to experience new things, and rewards them for
doing so. Foursquare lets users “check in” to a place when they’re there,
tell friends where they are and track the history of where they’ve been and
who they’ve been there with. For more information on foursquare, visit
