Foursquare sees 3,400 percent growth in 2010
Foursquare has become an important PR tool for hospitality, social and business connections. Not surprisingly, the company most recently posted that it saw a 3,400 percent growth in 2010. Throughout 2010, Foursquare received 381,576,305 check-ins which included one check-in from outer-space (thanks NASA).
For the athletic type, California ranked highest for Gym check-ins at 2.48% - narrowly edging out Illinois, Minnesota, New York and Washington.
It will be interesting to see how Foursquare’s growth continues in 2011 as more competition, including ‘check-ins’ via Facebook, comes into play.
