The occasional PleaseRobMe controversy aside, 2010 turned out to be a pretty solid year for Foursquare. The service reported today that it grew a rather impressive 3,400 percent in 2010 (and continues to grow, judging by the fact that, just last week, the service signed up its six millionth user).
Highlights for the 2010 calendar year include 381.5 million total check-ins including one check-in from space, via the International Space Station, back in October. That month’s Rally to Restore Sanity had the most check-ins for a single event, at 30,525.
New York led the way for most of the highly checked in venues, including Train Station (Penn Station), Hotel (Ace Hotel), Venue (Terminal 5), and Food and Drink (Union Square Green Market). California, meanwhile, led the way for Gym check-ins.
Oh, and we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention that 224 Wendys checked-in to the Wendy’s in Madison, Wisconsin, which, for the record, has a Mayor named Wendy. Phew.
