Actually foursquare is available "everywhere" now - just log in and switch your city and then start checking-in and adding places!

Hey all - me again.
So, new cities is another top priority for us. I'd really like to roll out Canada and London ASAP, but we need to find a solid data provider (finding someone with good data for eat + drink + art/culture/parks/etc is harder than you would think). Same problem is preventing us from rolling out US cities (and other international cities).
The good news: This is *my* big ticket item and something. And when we fix this once, we pretty much fix it everywhere. :)
(A lot of people suggested we just use the Yelp / Google / Yahoo APIs, though this is tricky cause of all the "places you've been in the past" queries we do. For these queries, we need to keep a copy our of venue data local, which is something we can't do with these APIs)
The three of us (btw, foursquare = 3 people :) have been talking about letting users roll their own cities... "Sure, we'll add St. Louis, you just fill in all the data!" which would technically work, but its a crappy user experience. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that we're on this and thinking about it.

Inappropriate?Any chance of letting users add Cities in the same way locations are added?
I can think of several very active usergroups (@PTUB for example) which would love to play (myself included!) without having to fly all the way to the US :)

Yups that would be even better, let people add cities the way they add veneus. So new cities can be added automatically when there is a demand for it, would be cool what downtempo says also. That one can see what is happening in your home city while you are away in a different city. -

Inappropriate?Yeah that would be even cooler, if your city is not yet in the system add it yourself just like adding venues ^_^ Hooray for foursquare !
-
-
Inappropriate?The "add a new city " feature would be great. If you're concerned about duplicates etc. you can always first open that to a couple of trusted users.
BTW I'll be spending a week in Mexico City and then in Paris. Would love to start pinging places in the system!
I’m amused

If you're willing to use data under a cc-by-sa license, you might be able to make use of data from the OpenStreetMap project:
http://www.openstreetmap.org
It won't be comprehensive for all areas, but it might at least serve as a starting point. (Maybe you could even contribute back data from Foursquare users adding their own venues!) -
Not sure what the serious issue is -- you already offer some trust to people for creating locations in other cities, and all we need is a "Bag" called "London" or a bag called "Toronto" to put them in (BTW: Canada has a number of cities, unless you are thinking of adding the whole country as a city)
The rocket-science / lots-of-effort part is where? I can't quite see it. Can you (seriously) expand on that? -
I can understand that launching a new city without many locations is going to suck, how about you create them so that the community can start adding places, then when there's enough it can launch properly?
-
It's like you can read our mind! We're going to try an experiment with users populating a city with new data next week. (@thedeplorableword, what city did you have in mind?)
-
I had my city (Birmingham, UK ) in mind but I think you should go for London because that will get a lot more people in the UK excited about FourSquare, which will equal more players, which will be good for everyone :)
-
Calgary, Alberta, Canada please!
-
Gowalla seems to use location data sources for cities and they are going fine with user generated content. It's even fun to be the first one to create something.
This is your chance to get ahead - they just have an iPhone app and a crappy webapp so far.
Another thing: The "Ruhrgebiet" in Germany is Europes cultural capital of the year. It consists of a lot of cities and the nearest one in 4sq is Cologne. That's not ideal... I suggest you give this some priority as the area will be well travelled this year and festivities are already beginning. Would be a shame to irritate people and miss out on the opportunity.
Here is a google maps link to the area: http://is.gd/5PmAv
And here is the official homepage: http://is.gd/5PmHH -
Inappropriate?Hmmm. Crowdsourcing cities would probably not work too well, like you say, but maybe you could crowdsource looking for data providers? I, for instance, have a pretty good idea of a bunch of companies that you could call for sweden data.
-
Inappropriate?Perhaps it's worth speaking to the guys at Dopplr, they have a growing list of places to eat, stay and explore. Plus it's international and covers all major worldwide cities.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Dennis, sounds good!! Keep us updated!
-
Inappropriate?Hey Dennis. I'm Ash Ponders, I work for atebits (tweetie) and love Foursquare.
I travel a lot, but will be spending a ton of time in Madrid soon. I could record a list of locations for you. It'll be like foursquare but instead of checking in, I'd add things to an XML file. And instead of getting badges, I'd get weird stares.
Would this be serviceable as a 'roll your own' database that you could eventually use to add Madrid?1 Comment Add a comment

I love this comment. "weird stares" ftw! :-)

Inappropriate?Dear Foursquare - any chance you can set up a poll of people who are interested in Foursquare in other cities, so they can at least 'sign up' and you can see where the most interested cities are? -

Inappropriate?In Manchester, UK, one of your competitors without geolocative restrictions has really taken off it the past month. As users we've added all the locations ourselves.
Sorry if I seem a little blunt (I really want to play Foursquare) but I don't see why you can't just define cities' rough boundaries as they're requested (not a lot of work to discover that using freely available tools) and then let us define all locations. Crowdsourcing hasn't hurt your main competitor. *Please* open up to Manchester soon.
I’m keen
-
Inappropriate?Hmm.. interesting. We find that with aggressive crowdsourcing the data can get a little muddy (dups, etc). I'll be sure to add Manchester in the next round tho!
Hold on! :)
-d -
Inappropriate?Thanks for the reply Dennis. There have been a couple of dups here but generally if a spot already exists people will check in at it. Here in Manchester/Madchester we're clearly keen geolocative gamers!
I’m encouraged

Inappropriate?Ah okay, thanks for the heads up! How many users / how many spots? Ah, we should have nailed the *everywhere* thing sooner, but we're getting there!

In just 3 weeks we've got over 20 active users and well over 50 spots. Might not sound that much compared to some of your locations, but bear in mind Foursquare's higher profile and it should be a big hit here.

Ah, you're breaking my heart. Madrid is a huge international city. iPhones and other lesser smart phones predominate. The city closes at 5am. The night life here is incomparably superior to anywhere else.

Inappropriate?VIENNA (Austria)!!
Capital and melting pot of the country,
highly frequented webscene,
large and numerous wi-fi areas,
high iPhone density (business, fashion, music, universities!!)
You totally have to get foursquare spread here.
Thank you, Miriam -
Inappropriate?please don't forget to cover as many capitals as possible.
especially those would profit who frequently jet from city to city: successfully finding last minute people/business partners/friends.
a flexible net through foursquare - still a dream? -

Inappropriate?I for one am impatiently waiting for Oslo to come up as a possibility :) Tried out Foursquare for a week in October in San Francisco, which was really impressive, both for finding local places for eating and concerts and so on, and for keeping track of the other IT conference attendees I traveled with (that is; for seeing which conference venues they were at).
Looks like this app/game has lots of potential. -

So, it will be more or less like Gowalla then?
-
In only the way that we won't restrict to big cities. We did the "city" thing so we could scale - helps us control number of users, number of checkins, number of customer support requests. Now that we're ready to get a little bigger, removing the city restriction will help spread foursquare much further.
-
I'm living in Linköping, one of the bigger cities in Sweden. When can I expect Foursquare to allow checkins here?
-
There are more of us that needs adding Oslo to use your service. Norwegians are tech savvy and love new apps for our iphone. Here is an illustration that shows norwegian users of social media: http://www.halogen.no/academy/underso....

Inappropriate?pls add major cities in Australia
Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Tasmania (ok, technically not a city but a small island), Adelaide, Cairns, Darwin, Alice Springs, Perth -
Inappropriate?just out of curiousity - Is there a (or where is the) list of cities that are scheduled to be added? Are there any things that individuals can do to make a city more attractive (Brisbane). Is it worth lobbying my local friends to engage?
http://foursquare.com/user/-3810 -
Inappropriate?Hey all - there's real science behind city rollout... we basically look at the list of requested cities, look for clumps of requests and then turn them of:
http://foursquare.com/cities
That being said, we got a big round of European cities coming out today (!! - Nov 4) and then some "Worldwide" cities after that.
We're working towards a "foursquare everywhere" model - so you'll just be able to play wherever you happen to be... "featured city" or random suburb. Hoping to have this out in the next few weeks.
Lemme know if you have any other Q's! -

It's one thing to store a history of places, but to dynamically generate lists of places you've been / you're friends have been / popular with other users *without* storing venue data on our side (which would violate google copyright) it's too slow to work.
That's partly why the API we're building has this data build into it - you'll be able to pull back "what's nearby" queries as well as "what's nearby ordered by popularity with my friends / the community / people like me" etc. It's a much needed improvement for everyone in this space. -

Inappropriate?I would love to know the process that goes into adding a new city. I was very impressed with all the venues that were pre-loaded when Brisbane came online. Was that done by enthusiasts like me who added them while 'pretending' to be in another city? Or is this done by FourSquare staff? If it is foursquare staff I can understand why you need to roll out new cities judiciously.

Love the app so far, looks pretty cool!
Just putting in a request for you guys to add York and Leeds to the project, both in the U.K.

There's already quite a few venues added in both cities, but they're all linked to London which makes no sense.

Inappropriate?Please!!! Add Santiago (SCL) in Chile... this is one of the most important cities in South America :-)
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?What do you want (as data) to add a city? I'd love to see Strasbourg (Capital of Europe) added, I can crowd source quite a bit of data...
Thanks!
-
Inappropriate?So Winnipeg made the cut for Google Street View. A wonderful service! I'm sure many Winnipeggers would love to put Winnipeg on the FourSquare map too. Let us know if we can help make this happen.
Thanks :)
I’m happy
-
Inappropriate?I guess Dennis if you're working on the "everywhere" feature then Cairo, Egypt will be on the list soon, right?
-
Inappropriate?you bet :)
stay tuned.

Inappropriate?Please do Add Lima, Peru to the site? There's a lot to see, drink and eat around here!
-
Inappropriate?I am currently listed in Mumbai. 'cause Maldives is not listed. Hope you will add it soon. Cheers.
I’m thankful
-
Inappropriate?I came across foursquare recently and decided to create an account today. I'm looking forward to using it when "Leeds, UK" is added!
I’m looking forward to using the site...

Inappropriate?How about Dublin Ireland?

-
Inappropriate?It would be great if Foursquake would come to St.Petersburg, Russia!
-
Inappropriate?Please add my hometown in Germany: Düsseldorf – it’s pretty close to Cologne, in case you might use the same data provider for this city.
Thank you in advance! -
Inappropriate?Hey you forgot Quebec city in Canada. Do you add it?????
-
Inappropriate?Please please add at least capital cities of most countries. Had to list myself in Phoenix, AZ, rather than Vilnius, Lithuania. Don't get me wrong I love Phoenix (used to live there), but I love Vilnius as much, and I am here for a while!
I’m excited
-
Inappropriate?Moscow & St-Petersburg, Russia!!!
-
Inappropriate?Leipzig, Germany please! I can not live in Berlin for virtuality!
-
-
Inappropriate?I'd like to add a vote for Bogota, Colombia. One possible provider of location info is www.vive.in
-
Inappropriate?Let's have Perth Australia added soon!? We feel left out and have to associate ourselfs with Melbourne for now! :-(
I’m Sad
-
Inappropriate?Could you include Utrecht, the Netherlands please? -
Inappropriate?How does a city or town get added? Does someone need to specifically request it? If so, I would like to request several. I live in Hidden Valley Lake, CA. That is about two hours north of San Francisco. So, right now, I have myself, friend Charlie McFarlain, his restaurant, Ting's Thai Kitchen and a convenience store, Hidden Valley Food Mart, all listed on Foursquare for San Francisco, although actually located in Hidden Valley Lake.
I would very much appreciate it if you could get the following locations listed - Hidden Valley Lake, Middletown, Clearlake, Lower Lake, Cobb and Calistoga.
If there is some special requirement to get a city or town listed on Foursquare, please let me know what that something is.

Inappropriate?Thanks for adding Singapore. I'm one of those who requested for Singapore to be added. I'm excited by this. I'm getting it on my iPhone rightaway.
I’m happy
-
Inappropriate?How about Cincinnati? Everyone in my company uses it in Kansas City, and two of us in Cincy are out of play.
I’m sad
-
Inappropriate?How does a city or town get added to the Foursquare list? I have already requested that Middletown, Calisoga, Cobb, Clearlake and Lakeport get added. Do I need to keep making the request or ask that others also make the request? What does it take to get the job done? There are a lot of small towns that would obviously like to be included. Are they exempt because they are not major metropolitan areas?

Inappropriate?Please add Düsseldorf!
We are near Cologne or maybe Cologne is near us? Düsseldorf is the state's capital of Germany's NRW after all! -
Inappropriate?When you say "Foursquare everywhere" and "removing the cities restriction", do you mean there'll be no "bags" called cities into which locations are slotted, and there'll just be one big "bag" for the whole world? That won't be fun. A better approach may be to allow users to add new cities the way we currently add new locations to existing cities. Is that what you're attempting?

Inappropriate?Please add "A Coruña" in Spain.
Or maybe you ́d add autonomous community in Spain (like Madrid, Catalonia, Galicia, Andalucia); that will bring a lot of new users!
I’m confident

Inappropriate?Manila Philippines would be nice, but Id like to put Cowboy Grille in Sta.Rosa, Philippines on the 4sq map.

Inappropriate?Hello,
Would it be possible to add Jeddah Saudi Arabia to the list? What needs to be done to get this city on the list? -
Inappropriate?Would be great to see FourSquare launched in Victoria, Australia!! -
Inappropriate?With the soccer world cup coming to South Africa in June, it would be a good idea to add all the major cities and tourist attractions. I would suggest to add:
* Buffalo City (East London and surrounds)
* Cape Town (the Cape peninsula)
* Ekurhuleni (in the east of Gauteng, East Rand)
* eThekwini (Durban and surrounds)
* Johannesburg (in the centre of Gauteng)
* Mangaung (Bloemfontein and surrounds)
* Msunduzi (Pietermaritzburg and surrounds)
* Nelson Mandela Metropole (Port Elizabeth and surrounds)
* Tshwane (North Gauteng, mainly Pretoria).[1] -
Inappropriate?Here in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, there is an public organization that holds all the data you need to include this amazing city at foursquare. Check it out at: http://www.belotur.com.br/ing Use the "Other attractions" menu at left and then select a category in the menu at right. It would be nice if you add this city! There's a lot of info about it! PLEASE!

Inappropriate?Olomouc in Czech Republic, please... -

Inappropriate?How about Manila, Philippines ?

Inappropriate?I could not find my city (Cape Town) when registering on the iPhone app but I could type it in on the website and it was accepted. Had an edit problem later on the website when it insisted on a "state" being entered (appeared to expect a US state) so some refining to be done on internationalisation still.
I’m expectant...
-
Inappropriate?Why not make anywhere that has enough people making it their location into an available 'city'? That way the most popular ones make it up quickly!
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?Agreed with Christiaan that will be much easier and faster to catch up rather than waiting for the Dev to do it
-
Inappropriate?Does anyone else see the irony in the answer to this question being "Let the *customers* of a social platform decide..." Have we learnt nothing yet? ;-)) I love Four Square, and would welcome using it and supporting it here in New Delhi, even becoming the "mayor" of a city of 17 million. Right now, I'm just stuck in "Elsewhere."1 Comment Add a comment

I thought the changes this week getting rid of the city "buckets" and making Foursquare Everywhere solved the problem?
-
Inappropriate?It's a bit confusing about how to use "everywhere" could you give suggestions and screenshots somewhere? I am a new Foursquare user in Chiang Mai and it is a pain to type on my phone. I'd like to enter data the "best" way recommended. Thanks!
I’m indigesting

Inappropriate?I think they should team up with Manta to gain access to information on 40 million non us companies.... they could also gain information on over 20 million us companies.
I’m hoping they join with Manta.

If you read the posts above, foursquare is already available "EVERYWHERE" so all you need to do is specify your location in the world and either search for or add new venues.
I entered Caracas, Venezuela and found some venues there already including this one:
