Foursquare is one of the leading location aware applications out there today with a rapidly growing user base. They’re really hot right now – they exploded dramatically at SXSW this year. We take it for granted when things “just work” – I can’t recall Foursquare having any kind of downtime at SXSW in spite of the explosive usage they saw that week and this is a huge testament to their dev team that managed the required scale so well.

I’m glad to announce a beta version of the Foursquare app for Windows phones – WinMoSquare.
