Let's be honest, this is an appeal for work, or maybe a marketing ploy of some sort. As an appeal for work it reads "I can be part of the boys' club." But a product people want? Please. There is not nearly enough Foursquare data in New Orleans to warrant this effort, and even if there was, can you identify the user that would look at this for more than a quick amusement? Ratio Finder (http://www.weeplaces.com/ratiofinder/ http://www.weeplaces.com/ratiofinder/) is better for actual planning because it shows historical data, not current trends.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to pop over to Imelda's Fine Shoes and hit on the only female foursquare user in all of New Orleans.

There's no healthy way to drop fifty pounds in 30 days, but people still google for it, and then try it.) And regardless of whether it actually works or not, I think it demonstrates a familiarity with multiple skills necessary for web development - working with APIs, hosting a site without it coming crashing down, writing HTML, etc., etc., etc.
