Bizzy Connects With Foursquare

Bizzy, the social recommendations site owned by Woodland Hills-based ReachLocal, reported today that it has connected its mobile apps directly with the popular Foursquare check in service. Bizzy said it has updated both its iPhone and Android apps, so that foursquare accounts are now directly linked to Bizzy accounts. Bizzy said that when users check into a venue with Foursquare, it will send a push notification to let users comment on how much they liked those venues, with options to add a photo or tips. Bizzy also updated its service to allow for bios in user profiles, email options, and other fixes. ReachLocal launched its social business recommendation site in November of last year.
