foursquare labs showed me this mobile game they're working on that's like candyland, but the gameplay is dependent on the habits and location information of REAL PEOPLE, whose data has been turned into literal pawns in the game https://t.co/i2Q214DRue pic.twitter.com/pLaSveDjxP

if you have a smartphone, chances are foursquare is tracking your location and habits. foursquare powers snapchat, twitter, uber, apple maps, accuweather, wechat, and more nowadays, and it's using that data for some truly truly weird stuff https://t.co/i2Q214DRue

Foursquare’s Hypertrending as of Fri 4:45pm at @SXSW in Austin. Lots and lots of dots (!!) while movies & “brand activations” still dominating the Top 100 list. Super curious to see what this looks like at 11pm and 2am. More deets: https://t.co/tCkOIpJ4JZ pic.twitter.com/yaiNNcvZvf
