Foursquare Keeps on Truckin’ With 10 Million Users
ADOTAS -Whoa — there are 10 million people on Foursquare now? I thought the whole location-based mobile social network fad was tapped out, replaced by the awesomeness of group texting (another fad I haven’t heard much about since it exploded at South by Southwest, even though I was impressed by [...] more...
Groupon Getting Friendly With Foursquare
ADOTAS – I was a little surprised last week when Groupon announced it had partnered with location-based mobile social network Loopt, serving location-relevant and time-limited Groupon Now deals to consumers through Loopt’s push-notification-based Rewards Alert system. Last month Groupon purchased Pelago, maker of Loopt competitor Whirrl, so I was expecting [...] more...

Where Does Foursquare Fit in Fluctuating Deal Space?
ADOTAS – A source of confusion surrounding the launch of Facebook’s expansion of its Deals product to the group-buying revolved around the pricing — some initial news reports suggested that Facebook was offering the new discount service free to merchants, which would severely undercut Groupon’s 50% commission fee. Alas, local merchants, [...] more...
Groupon Giving Check-Ins a Whrrl?
ADOTAS – As it lines up for an IPO rumored to excede $25 billion, the skeptics are wondering just how Groupon expects to keep up its ludicrous growth, especially as the daily deal playing field gets more crowded and chief rival LivingSocial continues to bloom. Well, the space leader just [...] more...
Foursquare Hooks Up Merchants With New Platform
ADOTAS — Foursquare was seemingly lying dormant the last few months, making some of us wonder if its magical check-in ride was over. Nope, it was just saving news for the South by Southwest Digital conference, where the location-based mobile social network has shined over the past two years. In addition [...] more...
Brightkite Exits the Check-In Game
ADOTAS – Though it was hailed as a clash for the ages, a panel of location-based mobile social networks — featuring execs from Loopt, Foursquare and Brightkite among others — last spring at Ogilvy’s New York offices proved to be a pretty cordial affair. Despite the chumminess, I asked the [...] more...
