Awesome. This guy keeps innovating in a crowded app market to keep Tweetie at the top. This might make me begin to appreciate 4SQ a bit more

Tweetie is the only app I’ll use for Twitter or Foursquare.

NICE… Tweetie 2 is just awesome – keeps getting better

why don’t you guys make a “tweet” section. it seems twitter related apps and news are taking over the tech crunch feed

Tweetie is awesome, but I really just don’t give a damn about Foursquare.

I like this addition, though I wonder if he plans to expand it to a general ‘location service’ icon, with info on Gowalla check-ins, etc.

Either way, I like the continued integration of geo into other social services.

Man, a story involving the iPhone, Twitter and Foursquare? MG must have had to change his pants.

Are we talking significant numbers here? How many people use geo data anyways? Anyone has an idea?

For those that are saying they’re going to be using Tweetie for foursquare instead of the foursquare app, you cannot check-into foursquare via Tweetie, only look at venue’s.

If this is what it seems to be, then I’m not enthousisastic about it.
This looks like a deal between foursquare and tweetie to get tweetie users to switch to foursquare as a location service. I don’t care about foursquare, gowalla or location services as they exist today in general, but I do care about choice. It’s a paying app, if I buy tweetie, I want to be able to chose which location service I use, just like they offer choice of url shortener and image service.

Mg uses it. He’s the only user that matters. Keep it up MG. Ignore the haters. The haters hate but you still rise(somehow). Foursquare for ever! They’ll be bigger than Google, Microsoft, IBM and US Steel combined.
My pants also explode every time I read your posts.

It’s about freaking time he got up off his ass and started updating his apps.

Siegler, reply to the Vegas email and get a free iPad!

I disagree. I am a Gowalla user but I still find this useful. I already use Tweetie for most of my news/info, with this I can search for nearby tweets with 4square’s geo-data and get info on local places.

I do see what you mean though. I just don’t think that was his intention, but this feature makes the check-ins of people using other location services less valuable to Tweetie users.

I think what would be a game change is to implement job searching capabilities with location based services. So for example if someone in your network or extended network is looking for a job, and you both are in the same vicinity, one of these location based services alerts you to that fact and you could meet up with them and discuss the job opportunity. Unlike restaurants and bar information, which really provides very little value, the employment industry can be huge for Location Based Services. Even if they can a cut like ebay does if a transaction goes through. In this case a transcation will be defined as Employee offering Employer a job. This will be a huge money making machine that rivals Monster.com for hundreds of millions of dollars in revenues. I am sure employment matching will be huge and we might not have heard much about it because everyone who might be working on it is keeping it big time hush hush. The best deals are those that benefit both people and this concept will be a game changer on how people find and discuss work. If I had even a little bit of money, I would dive into this idea right away,I would create mobile apps for employment leveraging location Bases Services. I am sure someone at Facebook or Monster/Dice/Careerbuilder is thinking of how to take the first dive and gain the lions share of the market for this new industry.

Wow, the ideas are pooring in today. Games like Farmville can monetize so much more money on Location Bases Services. They will be able to create huge aminal shows where we will be able to trade and buy cows/sheep/goats/swine. Once you implement a distance to it, it will make Farming so much fun since you will be able to visit neighbor farms or even travel abroad to other countries where you can pick up rare seeds that you will bring back home. I see a world to anoter dimension using LBS with Games such as Farmville.
Only If I did not lose my job 1 year ago and lost my house to foreclosure, I would be creating the next disruptive technology using LBS but instead I am here shedding tears on what might have been.

So how come there are so many posts about four square on TechCrunch? Not complaining, just wondering what’s up.

Actually funny how the second checkin in the first screenshot is made using SquarePik (http://SquarePik.com), and while you can’t clicks on Foursquare, on the new tweetie it even recognize that has a picture attached.
