Foursquare and Ten Friends to the pub...

Ok, so the internet is full of fads. Maybe Foursquare is one, maybe it isn't. Do I know the answer? No, do I care, not particularly. Mostly because I'm just enjoying this one. Not only is Foursquare fun but it's the side of social networking that seems to make sense.

You 'check-in' to venues in your immediate vicinity and in doing so, alert your friends to your activities and location. Check in to your local pub and your friends might just think that's a good idea too. Moreover, if they're already there at the same venue you'll find out straight away.

It's early days, but my page is http://foursquare.com/user/-2248787
