Foursquare GoesGlobal: Now You Can Check in From Anywhere
We knew this move was coming, but it doesn’t make it any less monumental for the rapidly rising location-based industry. Foursquare is no longer restricted to specific cities. Now, you can check in anywhere. According to a report by CNET , the social location service now offers you the ability to check in anywhere from your mobile phone. This is in contrast to the previous system, where you chose your specific city if it wasn’t auto-detected.
Attention, suburbanites: You, too, can be the mayor of your local Home Depot. That's because New York-based mobile location-sharing service Foursquare has made a subtle but big improvement. It's no longer restricted to a list of a few dozen cities in North America and Europe , which means that people anywhere in the world can use their mobile phones to "check in" through the service. (Foursquare currently has applications for the iPhone , Palm Pre , and Google Android , as well as a BlackBerry app in development and a mobile Web site.)
