Yelp Challenges Foursquare, Adds Check-ins to iPhone App

Yelp is drawing inspiration (in a manner of speaking) from Foursquare and Gowalla by adding check-in features to its iPhone app . Since there are over a million Yelp iPhone app users, Yelp’s check-in service will be in more hands and pockets than Foursquare and Gowalla combined. Well, if they all upgrade, anyway. And why wouldn’t they? Check-ins aren’t the only thing that have been added. User profiles are finally viewable, and Monocle — that’s the Yelp’s augmented reality function — is in the update as well.
