TFP: For those who love to use Foursquare, here are some popular do’s and don’ts to keep the experience enjoyable and safe.
Snapchat and Foursquare have entered into a partnership to power location-based geofilters and enable more targeted advertising.
"Foursquare is not a consumer social app business, it’s a data company. And only when it admitted that to itself and revalued as such was it able to pull in more capital and keep chugging. Today at LA’s Upfront Summit, Foursquare’s lead investor from Union Square Ventures Fred Wilson stuck up for the startup while trying to make people understand how it’s changed."
Team communication app Slack has hired Foursquare executive Noah Weiss to head up a new Search, Learning, & Intelligence Group for Slack, which will be part of the well-funded startup's new New York office.
I understand the values of FourSquare as a marketing tool, and in today's age, everyone wants to tell everyone where they are. But pretty annoying when people tag you in with them when you don't use foursquare and announces to everyone they know what you are doing etc. I think that you should have a choice in the matter.
