Harvard Teams Up With Foursquare

At The Voice, we are avid proponents of using Web 2.0 to foster an online Harvard community. So, we were naturally thrilled when we found out that Harvard has partnered up with Foursquare, the popular video-game-meets-smartphone application. The application allows friends to visit places while sharing information about their favorites, all the while unlocking “badges” and earning points along the way. According to the Gazette, Harvard is the first university to team up with Foursquare. Currently, the Foursquare application is only available to iPhone and Android users, but a Blackberry application is being released soon.
