Event Details
As the mayor of Rose Tech Ventures conference room, it's my pleasure to invite you to the May Feedback Forum with foursquare! (If you don't know what I'm talking about, I encourage you to try out the service and see what you think before the forum. foursquare is best experienced "in the wild.) Please join us for a discussion of social mobile and the challenges facing Dennis and Naveen. As always, the pizza and beer are free, free as in beer!
Note: We're meeting on Tuesday this month and not the usual Monday, due to the Memorial Day holiday.
Overview
foursquare is a mobile service that aims to make cities easier to use and more interesting to explore.
We're part friend-finder, part social city-guide and part social game and we help users meet up with friends, guide them towards what they'd rather be doing and both encourage and reward users for experiencing new things.
Discussion Points
+ What are the best ways for foursquare to expand its user base beyond our initial group of early adopters to gather mainstream acceptance.
+ Foursquare is currently many things to many people - friend finder, city guide, nightlife game. What's the best story we can tell to users and should we consider scaling back our product offerings to simplify the pitch?
+ Creating a "leaderboard for Saturday night" was one of the original visions for foursquare. What are the best ways for us to expand beyond "nightlife" as a limiting (and polarizing) focus?
