Winter wonderland! Londoners check in for a snowy surprise

Those who ventured into the Hackney borough in London over the holidays were treated to a little Foursquare magic, thanks to the people at Poke. As a part of the London-based agency’s Make Hackney Sparkle project, people who checked in to the neighborhood received a special surprise – their very own snow flurry.

By combining a handful of snow cannons, a Dean Martin recording, and the power of Foursquare’s API, Poke treated the people of London to a wintery wonderland. Read more about how they did it on their blog, and check out our developer site to start planning your Foursquare-powered project.

P.S. Our global hackathon is tomorrow (wink wink)!
