My addiction to foursquare

Header_logged_out

I have been playing at foursquare for the past month, and i have to admit this is pretty addictive.

I was never really attracted by any location based mobile application, but somehow I think i signed up after reading an article on scobleizer blog.

What got me signed up is not the title of the post which can look pretty appealing (Foursquare : will it be bigger than twitter?). I signed up because Fousquare is a game. I'm far from being a gamer, but I like competition, I like the fact that I can try doing better than your friend (in a good way).

I think It's awesome idea to use competitiveness in order to get people to find new places, to discover new areas and to get out of their routines.

I love the idea to combine real life action and online life. This is the future.

PS: i still check-in into places the people I'm with go use the bathroom
