personally i use check-in sometimes... i would think it would have been more effective than 4-square due to the sheer numeric advantage of facebook users.

interesting.

Part of the problem is that the Facebook app for iPhone is the worst piece of shit ever programmed.

Is the Android version just as bad?

That's news to me. I think the article is misinterpreting the feature launch today.

ultimate irony here is that the webOS facebook app was the tits. All the major players can't figure anything out.

webOS also has multitasked freaking nailed down. If Android would license that stuff they'd straight shut Apple down.

I thought of this article tonight when I was at the State soccer game...apparently if you check in at 8 soccer games this season, you get a free pizza from Dominos...but will the check in feature still be around by time most people get to #8? Great promotion if not, they dont have to give away anything.
