Foursquare has become a battleground. In this corner, wearing sequined trunks, me. In the other corner Tonia.
Tonia enjoys certain natural advantages:
- She has fine motor skills, meaning that she can check in faster.
- She actually goes places.
- When she goes places she remembers to bring her phone.
But never fear. Here’s my strategy:
- Live in a small town.
- Do not confine your check ins to bars, restaurants and nightclubs. The supermarket, the hardware store, the gas station and your own home are perfectly valid check-in locations.
- Having removed the battery or otherwise (temporarily) disabled your competitor’s mobile device, invite her bar hopping.
