Foursquare Atlanta Founder Chad Elkins Discusses Location Based Services

This week on DIG:This, Engauge’s Rene Smith, Stacey Cohen, and Drew Hawkins speak with Chad Elkins, founder and community manager of Foursquare Atlanta. This morning, Chad was nice enough to stop by the Engauge office to discuss location based services.

Chad was excited to speak with us about the second annual Foursquare Day and provide us with some great insider-info about Saturday’s Atlanta Foursqure Day party. Hosted at the W Atlanta hotel in downtown Atlanta, Chad plans to see over 250 people attend the event. There will be a DJ, interactive TV and great drinks. Also, the first 100 people at the event will get a free t-shirt, so get there early! The event will benefit the Atlanta Humane Society and the Atlanta Food Bank. Visit 4sqATL.com for more info or follow them on Twitter.

In this podcast Chad also discusses:

• The Background of Foursquare Day
• Foursquare in the past year
• Where Location Based Services are headed
• New players in the game
• Is the “Check-In” is going to die?
