What is Foursquare?
If you haven’t noticed, there’s a new Social networking sensation called Foursquare!
So what is Foursquare?
Basically, Foursquare is about finding places you love in your town/city and telling people about those places.
Plus, you earn points for discovering new places and doing new things. These points all add up and could make you the Foursquare mayor of a certain town or city.
But I’m spending so much time on Twitter and Facebook already, how can I fit Foursquare in?
Don’t worry, the trick is to use Foursquare in conjunction with Twitter and Facebook. For example, found a shop, cafe or restaurant you really love? Flag it up on Foursquare, grab the link, then publish it on Twitter and Facebook to notify people about the place. Think of Foursquare like a glorified version of Google maps!
Foursquare is going to be a great marketing tool for shops, restaurants, cafes, etc. Some companies are already giving customers discount to say thanks for flagging them up on Foursquare!
We’ve only just started using it, have only found 4 places so far, but can see it’s going to be a very useful social media tool.
