This is fantastic, and something that apartment communities should really consider. Here is a blurb from the
Read Write Web
article:
"Foursquare has quietly added a new feature to its website this afternoon that you won't want to miss: a new "add to my foursquare" button that can be embedded on any website.
If you own a business or publish a web page about any real-world location, this very simple button will allow visitors to your website to add going to your location as a "to-do" item and receive a push-notification to their phones whenever they check-in anywhere nearby. This small button could deliver a substantial part of the promise of Foursquare - tying together our discoveries online with our experiences offline."
Great find ... it might not be an instant "must have" for apartment websites, but it certainly can't hurt to try this. Make sure you're asking your ILSs to start testing these buttons on your listings, too.
