Foursquare went down for domain name issue
Therefore, GoDaddy pulled the site and put their landing page over there. However, domain registrar like Go Daddy used to give a number of several notices before they withdraw from domain and put it once again on the sale. Luckily, Foursquare noticed it and kept it back on the right place and spot. This seems to an over excitement for the company that is investing more $10 million round of funding for the company that would calculate company’s entire investment upto $80 million on paper.
So after first around of funding the first thing Foursquare did was the purchase of the new foursquare.com domain. Earlier, the service was used to be laid at playfoursqaure.com.
So it seems that company unfortunately forgot to change the e-mail notifications from whoever owned the domain originally to one of their email addresses.
