One Check-in TO RULE THEM ALL

Social Media Geolocation Check-In Noise

I use Foursquare for my check-ins. And Latitude. And Facebook Places. And Twitter. And GoWalla. And maybe Yelp. See my problem? I’ve been getting obsessed over check-ins because it’s directly relevant to piping real-time updates about my current location to my slim shady posse across all my social networks, a way to provide quick and…
