Depending on number and location of check-ins you can unlock societies. Also like Foursquare, businesses can create offers to people that check-in at your location or close by. If you missed why I think this is important, you can read my Foursquare post here.

I've been wondering about foursquare, and you've explained it so concisely here. Social media is so powerful for small business. Everything is still so fresh to people - it's exciting to have all of these new tools to market our businesses. Reading this also reminded me of yelp.com - another avenue for people to communicate about businesses with whom they've interacted. Very thought-provoking!

I also worry a tad about privacy but I have seen first hand the conversations that have started on Twitter with regards to foursquare. And for the record - so impressed that you are the mayor of Cafe Nola. LOL! I’ve been playing it a lot more now that I got the app on my phone.
