As long as you have Twitter and Facebook hooked up to your Foursquare account... None of my close friends use Foursquare, a couple of them have Twitters, and all of them have Facebook. Communicating location solely through Foursquare would fall under "Maybe not good" for me.

Same for me -- no close friends use it. Not much of a point: Increasingly, I see people using Facebook places, which has similar functionality, as well as geotagged tweets.

I seldom used my Foursquare account until I started getting into Instagram, which has a really good interface for easily sharing geotagged photos on Foursquare, Tumblr, email, Twitter, and Facebook.
