Foursquare seems just like a twitter. One can access this by the same devices as a twitter and it uses the same @ symbol. However, it is only available to ages 13 and up. It is only available for own personal use (non commercial). No one is allowed to post anything false or misleading, unlawful, abusive, threatening, etc. You can access third part sites at your own risk. companies are allowed to post anything on this site, as long as they know foursquare is not libel for anything the company said. These services are not the ones who post the information in your account, so it is not their responsibility for any action that could be taken in places because of it.

Hmmmm . . . but what IS Foursquare? How do people use it?
It is very much so like a “little twitter!” It has a lot of the same capabilities as Twitter with a little extra sauce. The only reason why I will never get it, is because of the . It is basically a tracking system to me. I have a hard enough time on twitter letting my followers know exactly where I am to deal with this! When will it stop? I don’t really see why people would use Foursquare other than the fact that they want others to know there every move. It does have some good capabilities like being able to suggest other places nearby and open reviews, but other than that I think this social media site should have stayed on the drawing board.
