This is a little off topic, but I can't stand sites that make me click 'next' 10 times just to read their article.. It instinctively makes me not want to read it.

Quite a few of these were check-in/advert type applications. I can't make myself even try these things, like foursquare facebook places, etc. I just don't like the idea. Anyone I want to know where I am, knows where I am. Adding lots of ways to sell me stuff after I check-in, or just straight up following me around tracking live for marketing purposes, solidifies my resolve to not use these things.

I can't say I would absolutely need any of these things, but their uses seem like they would work well in special cases, like some with some big company or something. I suppose there is a market for these things, but overall I'm not sure how necessary they really are...I think I may just not be reading about them detailed enough, nor do I want to cut down on the hard work of these developers, but how necessary is the next step in social TV, or something..

So I'm assuming that has to be done in a physical location where user testing is done ? I can't imagine this being a product for home use.

too many ads...
