Occupy with Foursquare

Nice idea for activists and grassroots. Make your presence seen with the location based service from Foursquare.
Occupy Amsterdam used the service to occupy all companies around the hearth of the Amsterdam financial center Damrak.
This nifty tool is easy to use, low budget and perfect for making a cause visible at crowded locations.
It isn’t a new idea. Occupy Wall Street used it across the US. See this map at the Washington Post.
Disclaimer: I combined a few Foursquare screens to make the image above.
