Video: Foursquare – Growing with Nokia

Foursquare co-founder and long-time Nokia fan Naveen Selvadurai discusses the latest versions of the foursquare app for Nokia phones from Series 40 to the new Qt-powered Nokia N9. This fast-growing social location application, with more than 10 million users worldwide, allows individuals to learn more about the world around them, and to share the things they learn along the way. Recently, use of the app has expanded greatly in Asia and South America. Foursquare for Nokia Series 40 phones brings the service to people who are getting on to the Internet for the first time. The new Series 40 version of the app integrates Nokia Maps to deliver a richer, and more seamless mapping experience; and it includes an “Explore” feature to provide recommendations based on where the user goes, and where his/her friends go, too. Selvadurai recognizes that developing a foursquare app for Nokia means reaching the needs of many different types of users on a broad range of phones. Collaborating with Nokia “allows us to reach an even wider audience all around the world,” says Selvadurai.
