Proposal
I have always found four square interesting on how people check in and places they have been. Recently I have spent a lot of time on four square trying to learn all the different functions that it offers. I want to propose a project where I send a facebook message out to a select few of friends that are around the same age as me that do not have four square with a rundown on how to sign up for four square and the basics how to use it. I will explain the amount of times that they need to check in a day for the remainder of the semester. I will then follow them on four square monitoring the places that they check in daily. I am interested to see the places that they go to and what ones do they go to more often, whether it is a certain food place or a certain hang out. It would definitely be fun to find out where the prime places of people my age hang out at. After I finish my research I hope to find patterns where each person frequents and write why that may be. It will also be interesting to find out their reaction when I tell them how many times they checked in at certain places.

Travis,
ReplyDeleteI am interested in viewing your proposal when finished. I am interested in using four sguare but haven't taken the time to learn it. Too many apps, not enough time.

Travis,
ReplyDeleteI am interested in seeing what the patterns are. It would also be interesting to see if you would categorize the participants by hobbies, careers, athletes, and non-atheltes. With the categories established, I think your results or patterns would have a connection with the categories. Good idea on the project!!

I like the four square idea. There are so many tools out there, so seeing them put to work will be very interesting.
