]]> Comment on Gowalla vs. Foursquare: Location based “gaming” by Eric Zierdt http://williamweber.net/gowalla-vs-foursquare-location-based-gaming/#comment-12 Eric Zierdt Tue, 04 May 2010 17:52:54 +0000 http://williamweber.net/?p=99#comment-12 It's been a while since you published this and I think that in the time since you published it, foursquare is in a much better position. They have done away with the location issue you describe, now locations aren't tied to a city, you don't loose your badges when you move to a new city and Foursquare is working with Business Owners/managers to offer specials to foursquare users/"mayors" and really use it as an advertising means. Gowalla has tweeked their "pins" and "items" delivery method and I have gone over a month without getting a new item to trade...that coupled wiht the fact that often I'm standing at the front door of a locatilon and I can't check in because the Lat/long is off for the location...very frustrating.

However, I just seems like shortsighted design. It frustrates me when applications that like to be categorized as "social networking" limit the social or the network. Foursquare is still a great app, it just frustrates me a little more often. True enough. However, I just seems like shortsighted design.

They don't limit the bounds of that Metro area, so if you are in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, you can still submit restaurants in St. Cloud, or Hudson WI, or probably even Duluth and north....just pick the nearest Metro area. I really don't see this as a weak point, just confusing terminology.
