Foursquare’s Time Machine

By Thursday, June 13, 2013 0 Permalink 0

I saw a tweet linking to https://foursquare.com/timemachine and my first thought was “Did they buy Timehop?”

Of course I clicked, and while they didn’t buy Timehop, this site is pretty cool! It plays a video of your check-ins throughout your time on Foursquare. I didn’t watch the entire thing because after about a minute I was still looking at check-ins from 2010, and knew there were MANY more to come. The animation is a lot of fun and I especially like the neon colors with the black background. I wish there was a way to turn off the music, but that’s my only complaint.


Curious to see what kind of statistics they provided, I clicked to see mine. They provided me with a whole infographic! So much fun data in here!

The last link they have is for “The Next Big Thing”. Since this site is sponsored by Samsung, I figured it was going to be a pitch about their new phone. Instead, I was surprised that it was recommendations of places in Boulder that I should check out.

So what are you waiting for? Go to Foursquare and check out your history now (courtesy of Samsung).
