I made my comment based on the fact that they don't seem to be adding any new features. It still remains a manual check-in service, while there is a lot more you can do beyond that. But reading your comment made me reconsider mine. After al

Irrespective of Naveen's departure, Foursquare seems like one of those companies that had its time, but it's clear now it won't have a place in the future.

You attribute malice to where there probably is none. I reckon the more likely truth is that the Path folk genuinely saw nothing wrong with what they were doing. There are a group of people (call them the Facebook crowd, if you want) who th

Do startups who are as hyped as Stripe ever go through the trough of sorrow?
315.

Those people are in the extreme minority. They are not worth the time and effort.

They're not the only company who lost money on Google TV.

What a great idea. I wish them success!

How do people track your work, if at all? Daily status meetings? Weekly status meetings?

These infographics are so noisy. They only make things hard to understand.

It won't happen. Asian cultures are too deferential to authority.
