Foursquare Makes it to a Billion Check-ins

The company celebrated the feat by creating a video with brilliant twinkling lights from around the world. The video is only: 56 long. I recommend you watch it in full screen because the effects are cool and it’s kind of fun.

The social networking service known as foursquare, which launched in 2009, announced this week that it hit a whole new place value with its check-ins – billions.

foursquare said in its blog post that it had hit a billion check-ins on Tuesday, claiming it is a big number for a service that only launched two years ago.

The foursquare blog also wrote “….a billion check-ins was pretty cool. Thanks for helping us get there, and we look forward to the next quadrillion.”
