FourSquare


Remember that popular game where 4 friends were confined in a box equally broken up into 4 other boxes? Well, I remember we had tricks like the famous CHERRY BOMB and black magic to knock you opponents out so YOU could reign supreme in your castle box...until the next kid would challenge you, or until break was over.

BUT lo and behold, this website has taken a familiar name and made it into this social thing: FOURSQUARE

The concept behind the website, well...hmmmmm think of it like this. You find a new place to go to in your city, a cool park, a new mexican restaurant, or a new alley way with cool graffiti, so you want to share it with everyone. Well that's what FOURSQUARE is about! You just tell people where to go and what to do.

But I find it copying the ideas of the facebook status and twitter thing, just with a twist. TO ME, its repetitive, but for the boring urban youth out there, this might a start to your new life of adventures as people give you clues and it your job to search for that treasure. FOR ME, I like to do things on my own time, when I want, and not have to rely on websites to tell me what to do, (though I do use going.com)

But give it a try, it can't hurt, let me RE-introduce to you FOURSQUARE
