Looks like some mayors need not go to “work” today, and I am not referring to those who are in a public office, but rather folks who cannot get enough of Foursquare, the popular location check-in service, as this service remains down and out as at time of publishing, without any solid information on when it will be back up online. The Foursquare status blog did mention that the service went down at 7:07am EST/12:07pm GMT, where they mentioned then, “The site is down and we’re investigating now. Will update as soon as we have more information. Thanks for your patience!”
There was another update that appeared around one and a half hours later, although it does seem as though the activity to tackle this downtime affected their thinking when it came to labeling time zones, with their statement saying, “We’re working to identify the cause of the outage. We’ll have another update soon.”
The third note from Foursquare read, “We’re continuing to work on a fix for the site outage, thanks again for everyone’s patience! We’ll update with more info as soon as we have it.” How has your life been without Foursquare working?
