Foursquare Beats Yelp and Gowalla in Reader Poll
It’s been another exciting week here in our long-running Faceoff Series . We pitted three of the top “check-in” location-based mobile services against each other to find out which among them is the preferred choice for Mashable readers. The results are now in, and we’ve got ourselves a winner: Foursquare takes the title! With 47% of the vote, the service beat out check-in newcomer Yelp with 26% of the vote. Coming in close to Yelp in third place was Gowalla at 20% of the vote, and a 6% tie ballot rounded out this week’s faceoff. Are you surprised by the results? Do you feel another candidate should have been included in the check-in services…

What is Gowalla?twitter.com - chris.pirillo.com - During the SXSW conference, I happened to run into Phillip. He is a developer with the Gowalla team. Up until that point, I had only heard about the service. I hadn't taken the time to sign up or check in anywhere using the service. Location based services are HOT right now. It seems as though half the tweets floating across my stream are checkins from websites such as Gowalla. Are YOU checking in yet? http
