　★★Foursquare Experiences Record Signups After Launch of Facebook Places

Can it survive in the face of competition from a behemoth like Facebook?

At least for now, the answer seems to be yes. According to a tweet from Foursquare CEO Dennis Crowley, the company had its “biggest day ever” for signups of new users on Thursday. The surge in signups was probably due to the countless comparisons people are making between Facebook Places and Foursquare. With heightened media and user interest, it’s no wonder people are signing up to find out what this location thing is all about.
