No denying it: nowadays capital federal the concept capital federal of privacy is really something smoky and undefined and should not be by force of conspiracy to realize this. We are constantly observed in various ways (have you ever wondered how to make your browser to always know what you need by offering you the advertising ad-hoc?) But not all evil comes to harm, thankfully. Of course, we put our audience to make every move we make, or thought that comes to mind, and therefore there is difficult not to mention capital federal Foursquare, the most famous of the app check-in. How does Foursquare?
The operation is very simple: Foursquare capital federal is a social network based on geolocation. In other words a user performs a check-in to a place and shares its location capital federal with other users. The check-in capital federal at places allows you to get the necessary points to climb a weekly ranking, based on the last 7 days, the contacts of which are part of their city (that's the beauty of the game!) And you can also share on Facebook or Twitter .
Obviously the idea is interesting and it did not take much so that everyone would realize the enormous potential of this platform in January 2013 there were 30 million registered users and 3 billion "check-in" to coincide with special events (eg concerts, parades, football capital federal games ...) In fact, it may happen to have particular benefits (eg free drink) only for carrying out a check in the right place at the right time, beautiful is not it?
Unfortunately, however, this mechanism does not always work perfectly especially if the managers of social or websites do not keep their own profiles updated official: it happened to me, in fact, to introduce me to the movies stronger than my mayorship and refused to see me the free ticket I deserve that, judging from what he said flashing the badge on my Nexus.
The recent news that Foursquare is looking for a way to make a radical change to its five-year history. An analysis carried out within the company, in fact, it was found that those who use the app plays only one of these two actions: check-in or carry out or looking for information about places to visit, where to go local. For this reason it was decided to split the service into two applications that only serve to make action between these two: Swarm, a new app that will allow users to see their friends nearby and then share your location via the traditional check- in and Foursquare, the app we all know well, that will be rewritten within the next few months to focus attention on research and discovering new places.
Listen, the point of the firm, this whole thing, was never to build an awesome check-in button. That's not the thing we got out of bed and said, That we wanted to build the most awesome capital federal check-in button in the world!
The CEO Dennis Crowley could not be more clear, what do you think? capital federal In fact, from massive user of Foursquare that I am, and from the top of my mayorships I can say only one thing: it is really needed in this division! We know better Swarm
The interface of Swarm is very much like that of the Foursquare app: clean and linear, the UI fully embraces the philosophy capital federal flat on Android as on iOS (and we are very happy!). You notice immediately what is the focus of this application: check-in. A splint. The name and the icon Bee Swarm are also daughters of Foursquare, one of the many unlockable capital federal badge application is in fact the "Swarm Badge" that you can get by checking in at a place where you have been at least 50 users within the last 3 hours. And then look at it: the hexagons that orange rounded and small intestine are not beautiful? Conclusions
Whether it is a good turning point for Foursquare there is no doubt: we users, even if unconsciously, we needed Swarm. Now that the app is available for all we can do is try it and see how it works. Ah, if you are interested in the privacy of this application is definitely capital federal not for you.
