Foursquare is going to be a big part of VMworld 2010 this year. You will be able to check-in locations all over the place!
First up, what is this Foursquare thing?

 

From Business insider:
"Foursquare is primarily for letting your friends know where you are and figuring out where they are. Secondarily, it's for collecting points, prize "badges," and eventually, coupons, for going about your everyday business."

As you can see, this can be great fun at a conference because you can see where your friends are and get tips about the cool things going on at the show.  Many sponsors are offering special deals and tips for checking into their spaces. Most sponsors have setup their booths in Foursquare and you can quickly learn about them from the list below.

If you find a booth that is not on the list please enter it using the following format.

 

Name: [Company Name] VMworld Booth #[1232]
Address: 747 Howard Street
Cross street: Booth #[1232]
City, State, Zip: San Francisco, California, 94103
Twitter: [Main VMworld Twitter Account]

 

Hopefully by keeping this format everyone will be able to find it and check-in.

 

Please be sure to:
1) add VMworld as a friend to your Foursquare account:
