I’d definitely use this feature on slow weekends to find anything interesting that’s going on.

I’ve whipped up a sneak preview design of Exploring Events as per the Foursquare Android Mobile UI: http://bit.ly/4sqEvents

Would be keen on hearing your thoughts.

I would like to see more interaction with others who have checked into the same places as I have. I have tried Loopt but not Whrrl. Loopt seems more like a personal one on one social network. Does anyone else have any network problems within Foursquare?

I have used most of the location-based apps. Whrrl and Loopt kept giving me problems on my iPhone and so I stopped using them. Foursquare works very well and I use it daily. It would be great if there were a better way to redeem rewards – Foursquare needs to make it easier, faster etc.

Once you checked in to a place, it would tell you where most people checked in after checking in where you were.
