Foursquare is augmented reality crossed with social networking in the form of a game. And at the end of the day, what you get is a pretty cool user-contributed city guide, lost somewhere beneath a childish and enthusiastic mobile app.
Zagat has now thrown in with the Foursquare guys in their quest to stay relevant in modern times.
Is there anything you want to see less in your favorite neighborhood bistro than some guy gripping his iphone, proclaiming with excitement that he is now the mayor of the restaurant? I know Zagat is struggling, but partnering with Foursquare is misplaced enthusiasm.
