In Case Anyone Plays Foursquare

snow_4sq_badges

Here at UTB, winning at the Internet is a pretty big priority of ours. If there's a human-interest story on "kids these days and their technology," you bet we're already using it. So obviously we've ventured into Foursquare, the location-based game where you check into places you go on your phone and get points and win badges and... somehow don't feel stupid. Trust us, it'll be a hit any day now.

Anyway, for those of you playing (Dave T., mayor of Copa, I'm looking at you, you're going down), there's some cool news in the badge department. VisitPA.com has partnered with Foursquare to make three new badges especially for Pennsylvania-- and you can get one at West Philly's very own Local 44! While the venues span across the state (what up, summer road trip), you can easily get all three within our city.

So, you Newbies, Adventurers, and Superstars, go forth and check in! But stop checking into College Houses. Like, really? You live there. That's cheating.
