Foursquare

Ok, reading about this I thought of two things. First off Lincoln's speech "Four score and seven years ago". I guess they kind of sound alike. My brain works strangely that way.

Second was that it seems like an evolution of geo-caching. With geo-caching, though it is not real time. People don't know where you are at that exact moment. It's a kind of treasure hunt.

I've opted out simply because of the privacy issue. I'm a big wimp when it comes to things like that. You can tell that by my blog entry about the privacy issue here: http://mgauck.blogspot.com/2010/01/ahhh-dreaded-privacy-issue.html

I don't like the thought of Big Brother watching over my every move. It's not that I have anything to hide, it just seems a little too close to that way of thinking, that's all.
