I have not yet toyed with Foursquare, so the Check In option on Facebook on my new Droid is the alternative I have started using.
Checking In alerts people as to where you are, which can be good, bad or just ugly, depending on what you are doing, who you are with, etc. Seriously, there are times/places where you might not want to "publicize" where you are and what you are doing! This is a good story!
I decided to visit my favorite watering hold, The Sun Dog Diner, in Neptune Beach. This a locally owned, operated, and green restaurant/bar with live music every night of the week. Fabulous menu with sandwiches, burgers, famous meatloaf, salads, entrees, appetizers, full wine list, full bar - you should check it out the next time you are in the area.
My good friend Larry, who I had not seen in quite some time, came in and we talked for a quite a while, catching up on what we have been up to personally & professionally, his kids, his grandkids, you get the picture.
Towards the end of the evening, I told him I was glad we had this time to chat, since we don't see each other as often, and that is when he mentioned the reason he came up was because he saw I had Checked In at Sun Dog...how cool is that?
