[A new form of marketing]

Foursquare: What is it?
FREE Social-media-local + Geo. You know where you are or what local you are, what you think or what happens as you gain points. It seems silly at first glance, the first question you'll surely be "why should I where they are and say what I think? ". I try to respond briefly: Have you ever read a travel guide ?

The potential of this game are also the businesses that encourage users Foursquare speak well of your room. Do you feel stupid or even a game glimpse the future of marketing?


Foursquare how?
all for now an Englishman on this site . There are simple keywords make clear that the use of the game:

• Check-in: is the state where you are (I did check in at the Bar Center)
• Venue: are the places where you can make a check-in. They are entered by users can be local, shops, places of interest etc ...
• Tip: is a free advice you can give to all, tied to a venue that is independent of your check-in.
• Badge: are the medals of the game, you can win in many ways and are related to your business: the number and type of check-in you do.
• Mayor: If you are the most assiduous frequenter of a venue, you become the Mayor (Mayor), a point of reference for all, an authority!
