Two days ago I attended a Foursquare World Meetup Day with Tune Hotels. So there were about 300+ different meet up in 64 different countries. That is quite a number isn’t it. Well, I have been using Foursquare for about a year now and checking over 300+ times.

Well, Foursquare is basically a something which allows you to check in at places you visited. May it be a cinema or a restaurant. So there can be 100 or 5000 people checking in at that specific place. Then there is another thing called Mayorship. Mayorship is obtained when you check in at that place you visited the most. An example would be an Apple Store in LA. You check in 17 times and the other check in 16 times. This means you are he highest check in and you will get a mayorship. When the other person check in 18 times, you will lose your mayorship because he/her has more check in that you at that place.

So what is so special about mayorships? Well, restaurants nowadays are offering discounts or even free food if you are the mayor of that place. Different places have different offer. Not every restaurant you visit have it.
Foursquare helps to promote your place to other people and they can give tips to other people if they are satisfied or not. You can also collect badges when you check in. Lets say you visit 5 different Starbucks, you will get a Barista badge.

So at 7pm, everyone came to Tune Hotel(Kota Damansara) to check in. The first 50 check in will receive a goodie bag. A RM 50 SPA voucher as well as T-Shirt,Cap and a 2 Days 1 Night stay at Tune Hotel.

Foursquare-ers who were there that night!
It took us nearly 50 minute to get 50 people to check in and get the swarm badge. Well, I already got mine few months ago so this time I was just helping out with my check in.
Tune Hotel’s tagline is “5-Star Sleeping Experience for 1-Star Price. Affordable, Clean and Safe!”. They have 5 branches in Malaysia itself and 2 overseas(London and Indonesia). Tune Hotel was build in Damansara mainly because of the facilities available between a 200 meter radius. Supermarkets, schools, restaurants and so on.
Later on that night, everyone headed out to Bangkok Wasabi for some Thai Food! The food is pretty good there.
