World Foursquare Day!!!

Come 16th April 2013 and Foursquare will be celebrating it’s 4th ‘World Foursquare Day’. Every year the 16th of April is celebrated as Foursquare Day, the logic being that four squared is sixteen, hence 4/16 serves as the official Foursquare Day.

 

While the Foursquare community in the world comprises of over 30 million people currently, nearly 5.7 % of Foursquare users come from India.

This day sees most communities of the world celebrating in their own way, by having community events, social causes or simply check-ins to mark the day. 4sqDay is all about—using a common interest to get together with others in your community and learning more about them and from them.
