Foursquare Sees 3400% Growth in 2010
PrintDon't pay any attention to all that banter about Foursquare being driven out of business by Facebook Places. The location check-in service just released some numbers indicating they saw astonishing growth of 3400% in 2010. It's not just that Foursquare is that great, but that all the talk about Facebook Places drove consumers to investigate location-based service that much more. Some of them eventually landed on Foursquare.
Along with the big headline, Foursquare created a great infographic. Check it out at the link above. Some of the more interesting aggregated data include the total number of check-ins, 381,576,305. The top eating establishment, Union Square Green Market. And in case you were wondering, the top state for gym check-ins was California.
At 6 million users strong, Foursquare is forging ahead in the face of the Facebook behemoth. Do they stand a chance in the long run?
