The idea has now caught by lot of users, with the boom of the smartphone with GPS Locator, which lets users share their location, categorized by types (restaurants, open spaces, universities, entertainment, etc ...) and let tips or impressions. In most cases, Foursquare is useful for visitors to a city, for example, that being in a place that is teeming with restaurants, see "nearby" the local restaurants and find the one most recommended by the users of this "geo-social ".
Foursquare is also social because it lets you create a list of friends, to know their position is also displayed on the map. Foursquare needs to operate an internet connection. Foursquare does not work automatically, or you can share your location without meaning, as in places where a user wants it to be "discoverable", you need to check-in. To entice users to use Foursquare often, have seen fit to assign a rank to users, a sort of ranking of friends and contacts, in which those who are more "Tag", has the most points. But here, the lovers of racing beginning to turn up his nose a little bit: it is not known ranking system by which points are awarded to the check-in, from or why ' tomorrow today will be reset, or dropped. Foursquare also has a big BUG: it allows to check in even hundreds of meters away from one place. So, how to make points in Foursquare? Simple, creates new jobs, even fictitious and tagged everywhere. Until they settle this bag of Foursquare, where everyone can do checkin seems, even a mile away, and accumulate points. So here it spontaneously arises a wish: to improve the program and allow users to to check in only after being located via GPS at that particular point and not for a moment, perhaps with a pre-check-in which will be confirmed with the following points, only after a certain period of time, so that the program has the certainty that you are really in that place! This is a big advice to developers Foursquare!
