@elbowonfire you usually have to approve access to where you're located (friend requests).

I think that although women are very social they are also very careful. Stalking is a big issue so they are properly hesitant to try stuff like this. Otherwise I totally agree with you.

@laopin Because right now Foursquare only supports places where people linger for a period of time. Right now that is bars and restaurants. It is also most likely that a that is where young tech-savvy people are going to congregate and spend money. Where they spend money is key in making services like these profitable. As the business dashboard gets implemented this will give those businesses huge amounts of data about specific customers and trends about their larger customer base.

there are times though when i would like to avoid people (maybe a friend, maybe a crazy psycho stalker ex) and it seems to me that though these services have great perks, they open up the floodgates of scary people knowing where i always am. Am i the only one who thinks this???
