In the cold war between Foursquare and Gowalla, another shot across the bow of Gowalla has been made by a surprising Foursquare ally – Tweetie. The popular Twitter client for the iPhone has added support for the popular geotagging, badge collecting app Foursquare. Although Gowalla released their API, it may be only a matter of time for it to be integrated into Tweetie.

We asked Loren Brichter for a comment about why there’s no Gowalla support and haven’t heard back yet. We’ll update you as soon as we hear anything.

About the Author: Michael Gaines started being a geek at a very young age. Starting with tape recorders and TI calculators, he was armed with the tools to be creative with electronics long before most people knew what a modem was. His parents were teachers which gave him the the rare super power of teaching people how to understand the devices they're using.
In college, he was a DJ at the school's radio station, and tech editor of the college newspaper. His fondness for spreading his knowledge throughout the universe has spread to the internet where he works on two podcasts: Geekistry, World Of Warcast.
Until humans can reach past Earth, he currently resides in New Jersey, writing and podcasting about the many things that help teach how things work.
Let’s goooooooo Gowalla!
But still no re-implemented Ping.fm support!
