Foursquare is a fairly newer program that is used when on a mobile phone. Members of this program can note their location and can find out where their friends are at and their recent activities. It gives people a new way to explore their cities. It is the newest form of social networking. It is a way for people who have mobile devices to interact with their environment. Some special features about this program are that you can earn points, unlock badges for discovering new things, and you can earn mayorship.
I have never used this program but I keep hearing more and more about it. It is becoming the new big thing in social media. I have many friends who “check in” to Foursquare on a daily basis in competition to achieve mayorship. It is like a game, competition, and a cool way to explore new places around where you live.
It is one of those things that I feel like if I start using it, I will be addicted. It almost seems like a way to stalk your friends and beat their “high scores.” I think it is so interesting that there are new things popping up every day for new ways to interact and stay connected.
