Can Facebook places really beat Foursquare? I see some sites like http://WorkplaceTalk.com people can use can use to talk about places they check in and to share office gossip anonymously that are already built on top of facebook places. The advantage facebook has compared to other sites is Huge Huge user base.. Time will only tell who wins!!!
