Think of it as a real-time steam of the most popular restaurants+bars+venues in your area.</p> <p>Why did we make this?—->mostly for fun… but also because the foursquare app only pulls <strong>2</strong> trending locations at a given time based on your physical location.  We wanted the ability to see all popular locations, either at home or on-the-go (and who doesn’t want to follow the crowd).</p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.misotrendy.com">MisoTrendy</a> works on desktop or mobile. Go ahead and check it out.</p>http://sitdownstartup.com/post/866288509http://sitdownstartup.com/post/866288509Tue, 27 Jul 2010 11:00:00 -0400<object width="400" height="254"><param name="movie"
