Connect your foursquare account to DontEat.at and get a text message every time you check into a restaurant in danger of health violations. Love to see people do clever stuff like this on our platform. Well done, @maxstoller!
ps: now I want one of these for places that have had reported cases of bed bugs

Wow. This is one of the hottest things I’ve seen that make use of the @foursquare API.

I’m sorry, but this fails to generate commerce, it only drives customers away. Much better would be a risk-rewarding app with discounts on places that failed health inspection. Or maybe there could be an Iron Stomach badge you could unlock after 10 checkins at places with grades under B.

Having been laid up by food poisoning more than once, I humbly disagree. You want it to generate commerce? Charge me $5 a year for the service. I’d gladly pay.
I WISH this was available for Metro PDX restaurants.
