Google Maps and FourSquare Team Up and Create FourWhere

FourWhere, the newly created location based social search engine tool displays Foursquare comments and advice through Google Maps interface.  This gives Foursquare users the ability to search for and learn what other users are saying about nearby places and locations.

To work the new application simply input an address or location into FourWheel ad right click n the map.  From here select to view the display preferences.  This will bring up a map displaying all comments made by users nearby your current location or a pre-determined location.  This will also show venues within your vicinity and will remove venues lacking tips.

This simple, yer ingenious app is very powerful and is bound to become popular very soon.  When you are visiting new areas you can search out local restaurants, bars,stores, and much more all with reviews and details about the venue.

FourWhere currently only pulls in data from Foursquare, but Sysomos, the company behind the application plans to integrate more social data sometime in the near future

    This sounds similar to what Bing has recently released as part of their Maps App. Either way I think we're going to see a lot more Foursquare intergration in all the Search Engines

  8. i think if data could be pulled from all Geo-location services – Fousqure, Gowalla, and MyTown this would sure be a killer app.

    At the moment this seems more like a duplicate of the Foursquare app?

    I have to say that Im really unimpressed with this. I mean, sure, youve got some very interesting points. But this blog is just really lacking in something. Maybe its content, maybe its just the design. I dont know. But its almost like you wrote this because everybodys doing it. No passion at all.

    Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, great blog!
