Foursquare unrolled deeper Facebook integration today by highlighting venues users’ Facebook friends have engaged with on Foursquare.

Foursquare will use public activity, but not check-ins, from a user’s Facebook contacts, to serve relevant recommendations under the Explore tab. Check-ins will remain private unless the Facebook friends are also friends on Foursquare.

“The best recommendations often come from friends. When you’re looking for a burrito or how to spend your Saturday, Foursquare can show you the Mexican restaurants, coffee shops, and museums that your friends love,” the company said.
