In another move to encroach Foursquare's main business, Facebook is introducing a new nearby place recommendation feature into its iOS app. The social network calls the feature as Place Tips. It will display posts about a certain shop, restaurant, or other establishments when it sees you're in the area. It is currently testing in select areas, like New York, before a universal rollout. We don't know yet when that would be or if it'll come to Android. Let us know if you're able to try it out and what you think about it.
