New York Mag Links Up With Foursquare

New York magazine’s Web site nymag.com has linked up with Foursquare, becoming the latest in a rash of traditional media companies to hook up with the location-based social networking service.
 
Users of the service can “check in” when they visit local businesses, alerting friends of their location while earning points that can be redeemed for perks at the business. In recent months, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Time Out New York have partnered with Foursquare to distribute news and other editorial content.
