     Seeing @jw and @dens talk about the Foursquare City Guides app closing down startled me for a bit, until I remembered there are now 2 separate Foursquare apps: Foursquare Swarm (its “lifelogging” check-in app) and Foursquare City Guide (for “restaurants and bars nearby”). The app we all used in Web 2.0 is the one now called Swarm. That continues, at least for now. I wrote up my Web 2.0 memories of it last year: https://cybercultural.com/p/foursquare-raps-by-the-go-bang-mayor/ #Foursquare
