Foursquare Making Changes

Goodbye Foursquare Mayors, make way for the new Swarm App

Foursquare is going to make some changes as part of their efforts to basically split themselves in two. The badges people are so found of – small virtual trophies rewarded to individuals for checking in- are going to be thrown to the curb, as are their ‘Mayorships’ as they are currently known. The new ‘Mayorships’ will be limited to the friends you’re connected with on the application instead of all individuals on Foursquare, and the reward has now been downplayed to a simple sticker.
