Metro Canada websites to integrate Foursquare buttons

Metro Foursquare.pngCanadian Metro websites, Journalmetro.com and metronews.ca, will be integrating "Add to Foursquare" buttons on their website, Newspaper Innovation reported today.

The newspaper partnered with Foursquare earlier this year and began offering location-based restaurant tips to its followers.


Through addition of this new feature on the news site, users can add a visit to a location as a "to do" in their Foursquare account and either link back to the full article or post a review on the Metro website.
 
Hoping to enhance its brand image, the free commuter daily also recently unveiled a "radically redesigned newspaper" for its readers in Halifax, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver.

The button will be placed adjacent to the venue-targeted editorial content like restaurant reviews.
