Interesting article stating that Twitter is teaming up with Foursquare to add location services to tweets. Could be an interesting marketing tactic - if someone tweets they had a great meal at XYZ restaurant and its geo-tagged, the restaurant could know that they patron is in the restaurant and perhaps give them a coupon for a meal next time or a free dessert. Conversely, if someone has a bad time at say, JFK airport with JetBlue and tweets / tags the location, perhaps JetBlue can send someone there immediately to help mediate the issue.
Personally, I think that this a great move by Foursquare and who knows, maybe Twitter ends up buying Foursquare to have this enabled at all times.
