One of the things I like about this blog, is that many of the users that leave comments on it have views that are parallel to my own. For example, when addressing the ways in which businesses motivate their customers to buy their products, user "Thomas M" posts, " one thing that would be nice for us the customer is to see that punch card effect, see how many checkins we have before we attain it. It would also be nice to have those for badges." In addition, user " TG" says "Are there anyway we can get notifications when people write tips in our multiple locations? It's quite tedious to go and check one by one venue." This is a very useful forum for new users, as well as for longtime users that want to see the site go in a different direction.
I think that if Foursquare wants to maintain its usership - or increase it, for that matter, it is going to have to pay careful attention to the needs of its users. This, in turn, will determine its overall effectiveness.
