Foursquare checks are now displayed on Facebook Timeline cards

The popular geolocation service Foursquare recently announced that check-ins of users sending information about places they visited on Facebook will now be displayed on Facebook Timeline cards. Previously, only the checks of users made by them in Facebook were displayed on these cards. Now two services, Foursquare and Facebook, have begun to cooperate, and this may be interesting for users of two resources.

So now all places visited by Foursquare users, including restaurants, cafes and other locations, will be displayed in the Facebook Timeline. This applies to both new chekinov and old - they will be automatically added to the map. It is worth noting that the reaction of users of these services is positive - many have been waiting for this news for a long time, and now they have begun to actively use the new opportunity.

Foursquare has now 20 million users, and the expansion of the user base continues. Now Foursquare has begun to actively monetize - for example, advertisers were able to buy advertising space. Of course, this is not advertising banners, but also quite noticeable advertising.

A little later, the service will add the number of functions (the exact update date is not known) for both users and advertisers. I would like to hope, of course, that there is not too much advertising - but the management of the service has so far shown itself on the positive side, so everything should be fine.
