Week3: Foursquare, a very playable application!!

Foursquare,
This is an application to share "locations" we have visited.
We can rate the places.

I downloaded Foursquare to my iPhone from Apple Appstore.
 I was surprised since the super high rating score.
Anyway, I launched the downloaded app.


Its interface is so intuitive.
It was not hard to get familiar with how I can use this app. It's so simple.
What I was surprised again is that there are a couple of my friends who are using Foursquare!!
I am an outdated person!!!! OMG!!!

I am living in McCollum Hall. Interestingly, some people left comments on McCollum page!!
That's funny!

In addition, I found him!! Andrew!!
Actually, he is not my friend. But I know him. He was a tutor in Reading-Writing Center.
I have got English revision service from him. That's surprising !!

    This looks like a pretty cool application- I don't think I can use it since I don't have the Iphone. I'm thinking about why this is a Web 2.0 tool- is it just because you can share with others where you are or is there more to it, like can others immediately see your rating of a place that you are? I've never used this app so I'm just curious!

    1. Hi Erin,
      This app is awesome. Users can make 'shared knowledge' about places where we need to find!
      However people in Tally are not active in using this app.

  2. Tang,
    I wrote about this application too. I went to download it and found it a little overwhelming so I did some research on its uses and benefits first. Check out my blog and you'll see that you can become a mayor of a space you frequent the most, maybe even McCollum Hall!
