Through some ghetto research I would say Foursquare is gaining popularity

I am just doing a little research on Foursquare for a project I am working on and I would say they are going through some pretty incredible growth.

As of just now they have 282,606 users.

There’s a pretty simple method of counting users via quora.com user @angusdav 

To get an up to date answer, you can go to http://foursquare.com/user/-240000 and change the trailing number to your best guess.  You must use “The Price Is Right” algorithm: you can guess right and be under, but if you go over the answer, you will be redirected to their home page.

Location based services like foursquare are going to get really big this year. It’s going to be interesting to see how they grow and how and if advertisers can integrate their service offerings.

Flour power – an amazingly fresh skateboarding video

This is one of those – ‘I wish I had thought of that ideas’.

It reminds me of the chalk Lebron Nike spot but taken to the next level. I
kind of expect to see this in a commercial production soon.
