A million check-ins isn’t cool. You know what’s cool?

Sep 20th

So… last week, we passed a billion check-ins. (!!!)

Because we’re data nerds, we put together a video of what a week of check-ins looks like on foursquare. We think it’s pretty, but, more than that, there’s some really awesome data there. Watch it a couple of times to see the patterns as night settles over the globe, as venue categories ebb and flow on different continents, and as teeming cities wake up and fall asleep. It’s even more awesome in full-screen, in all its HD glory.

Anyway, a billion check-ins was pretty cool. Thanks for helping us get there, and we look forward to the next quadrillion.
