GetGlue

Miso’s decision to expand beyond TV check-in doesn’t mean it isn’t a very promising segment. GetGlue knows it very well: according to its blog, it is now “a community of over 2,000,000 entertainment fans, that checked-in more than 100,000,000 times in 2011.”



Unlike foursquare, GetGlue only focuses on media check-ins, around movies, TV and music. However, both sites share gamification mechanisms through badges and discounts – GetGlue has closed partnerships with major film & TV brands such as True Blood and Twilight.

However, it would be wrong to see foursquare and GetGlue as direct competitors, and GetGlue added foursquare integration in March this year. In other words, GetGlue found a niche and is filling it very well.
