“Foursquare boasts that users have gone to the gym more since it introduced a gym rat badge… Brands, like Nike+, are already tapping into the life-as-a-game trend.

Nike subsequently introduced more game-like features, like having users compete to achieve accomplishment levels.” Brian Morissey on AdWeek
