Foursquare
Mission/Vision
“Foursquare is not just about the check-in, or recommendations, or points, or badges. It’s about making the world easier to use. It’s about discovering new places, connecting with friends, and forging new relationships with the places you visit. It’s finding new ways to layer technology on the real world. All of our employees believe strongly in this vision, and we’re incredibly lucky to have investors and a board that feel the same way.”
Analysis of Features
Foursquare has a check-in feature that allow its user to “check-in” and let their friends know where they are currently. Foursquare also has the feature that will allow its users to log-in using their Facebook account. By logging-in using their Facebook account, their friends in Facebook will be able to know where he/she is because of the check-in feature.
Features for Adaptation
The features that we will be adapting would be the check-in feature and the Login via Facebook feature. Instead of places located around the world, WOBL would have places to check-in along Quirino to Vito Cruz. Places would include University Mall, Archers, Agno, Henry Sy 10th floor, etc.
