Foursquare and me

Foursquare and I have had a tough relationship…which has been chronicled on the Motor Creative blog, one of the blogs I on which I cover social media strategy. First, I started on foursquare. And then I decided it wasn’t for me. Finally, I decided (after a lot of convincing) to go back. While each of these posts has a lot of explanation behind each of my decisions it really came down to one thing:

Foursquare is learning, growing and expanding. It is going to change and possibly change how businesses market themselves…why would I want to miss the changes?

What are your thoughts on foursquare?

    I did a very similar dance with Foursquare, but all in all I just felt that I didn't want it to explode and I watch everyone else be involved!

    I deleted my Foursquare account a few weeks ago because I was tired of the noise, but I'm probably about to give it another shot. There's still far more noise than I'd like – I couldn't care less about anyone just getting a cup of coffee at Starbucks – but I'm starting to come around to the point of view that as Foursquare's user base grows, the amount of worthwhile information attached to venues will probably make using it more worthwhile.

    I still prefer Brightkite since I don't need to add the venue seemingly every time I want to check in, duplicates aren't an issue, I can search for people and venues around my current location, I can upload photos, and more, but it's clear that Brightkite is sputtering while Foursquare grows. Foursquare may prove itself as a useful source of local information as I travel this summer.
