Seal the Deal with Facebook

Facebook has put its pretty weighty cards on the table with ‘Deals’ that basically brings Foursquare/Gowolla to Facebook.  The main difference being that rather than a few million members, there’s hundreds of millions.

Hopefully they’ll bring in some extra features too (maps guiding you to the recommended ‘Deal’ / preferences for categories like on Vouchercloud).  Presumably bringing this features in before Facebook’s IPO is a tactical manoeuvre which will surely see that valuation bumped up a notch or two as well.
