INFOGRAPHIC: If Obama Used Foursquare
Today has been the Day of Location-Based Reporting at ReadWriteWeb, and what better way to help you end your tedious work week than by showing you this entirely speculative infographic that's recently been making the rounds in our back channels.
Now, since the Commander in Chief has admitted to not even being a Twitter user, we can also safely assume he's not big into Foursquare, either. But what if he were? What if he had the freedom to complain about bad restaurant service, gossip about his colleagues and get a hard-earned "Bender" badge just like the rest of us? Would the maps of his checkins look something like these, perhaps?
Featuring humorous - if fictional - anecdotes and tips from the POTUS, this graphic also blends real info about hotspots the First Family has hit up in four major U.S. cities.
Perhaps one day, we'll be able to talk Obama (or one of his predecessors) into sharing the minutiae of his nightlife with the public. How do you think the Secret Service would feel about that?

The piece was inspired by the Foursquare-integrating BlackBook Guides (iTunes link), a set of cultural guides to major cities, featuring restaurants, nightlife, travel, fashion and entertainment.

Very cool piece. Obama is probably going to read this and wish he had some more Foursquare in his life.
I had a good chuckle imagining that Obama has Joementum on his Google alerts.
This is totally wrong. Everything would say:
Obama [off-the-grid]
"checked in but hiding his whereabouts".
BlackBook app sounds cool. Downloading as we speak. I'm a sucker for apps that tell me where to drink
"I'm a sucker for apps that tell me where to drink"
More importantly, it helps you remember where you were drinking the night before. Thanks BlackBook app :)
Oh, and Biden + Fart Jokes = Awesome
@KrazyKorean Thanks for stopping by! And yeah - BlackBook looks hella cool.
Obamas security would have kittens if he started using Four Square. I wonder if he would be mayor of anything.
"7 days in office, 2,549 to go"
Why only 7 years in office?
