"Foursquare is built around connecting with your friends and, starting Tuesday, you\u2019ll be able to interact even more closely with them when you check in, by checking them in as well.\nTo check in a friend, simply tap the \u201CI\u2019m with\u2026\u201D button while you\u2019re checking yourself in and add your friend's name. She will then receive a push notification asking her permission to let you check her in. \nSEE ALSO: Top 25 Free iPhone Apps of All Time\n\nIf your friend approves, then you\u2019ll be able to check her in on future adventures together without her permission. If she declines, then she will just be mentioned in your check-in as normal. You\u2019ll always receive a notification when your friend checks you in, and you can delete check-ins that you\u2019d prefer stayed private.\n\n\nFoursquare launched mentions for check-ins last year, a feature which has become primarily a place for Foursquare users to indicate who they happen to be with at a particular time or place. The idea behind Tuesday\u2019s announcement is to improve that experience, letting the mention go a little further, so that it's actually a check-in with that person.\nWhat do you think about Foursquare's new feature that lets you check in your friends? Do you see yourself using the feature? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.\nThumbnail image by Mashable; Screenshot courtesy of Foursquare"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
