<p>Foursquare has partnered with OpenTable to offer an in-app reservation service for its users.</p><p>In a move that is entirely unsurprising except for how long it took Foursquare announced it will be partnering with OpenTable to enable restaurant reservations.</p><p>With Foursquare's update to its recommendation engine being pushed through just yesterday, you're more likely to discover locations you'd like to visit and eat at based on the places that your Foursquare friends have been frequenting. Today, once you've discovered an intriguing restaurant through Foursquare's "Explore" tab and would like to make a dinner reservation, you can do so simply through the newly implemented "Make a Reservation" button that you'll find on the venue's Foursquare page.</p><p>You'll only see the feature if the venue is an OpenTable participating partner, of course. But provided the vendor works with the platform, you simply select "Make a Reservation," and OpenTable branded page opens up from within the Foursquare app, where you can then select the date, time, and number of guests. After selecting "Find a Table" on the same page, Foursquare will display the number of stars OpenTable users have allotted the restaurant and other details including location and average costs provided. You'll also notice that a Google map of the location is included at the bottom of the same page. To finalize the reservation, you're prompted to sign into your OpenTable account, so you'll either need to be an existing member or register in order to use the new feature.</p><p><a href="http://www.digitaltrends.com/social-media/foursquare-partners-with-opentable-to-offer-in-app-reservations/">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2410393,00.asp">Foursquare, OpenTable Team Up for In-App Reservations</a> (PC Magazine)</p><p><a href="http://techcrunch.com/2012/09/28/foursquare-partners-with-opentable-to-make-reservations-simple/">Foursquare Partners With OpenTable To Make Dinner Reservations Simple</a> (TechCrunch)</p><p><a href="http://www.webpronews.com/foursquare-app-adds-opentable-integration-for-easy-reservations-2012-09">Foursquare App Adds OpenTable Integration for Easy Reservations</a> (WebProNews)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?pz=1&ned=us&ncl=dx9Ae8L6k1x-wGMywjY7F4xTMoBnM">11 additional articles.</a></p>
