The number of checkins on Saturday set a new record for Foursquare, which only reached the milestone 100 million total checkins in July 2010.

The service's first-ever Foursquare Day was held April 16, 2010. This year, a total of 19 mayors -- including Mayor Bloomberg of New York City -- declared April 16 Foursquare Day in their cities and towns. Additionally, more than 1,200 events were organized around the world. And one superfan even got a checkin-themed tattoo. Ouch.
