What Lies Beyond The Check-In: Foursquare To Launch Big New Redesign Next Week
If you’re following Foursquare on Twitter, you’ve probably noticed that the check-in champions have been teasing the release of the “all new Foursquare” app for the last few days, dropping hints that it was coming soon to app stores near you. Continuing to use the hashtag #allnew4sq, Foursquare last night dropped the news on Twitter that it will be releasing its big new redesign at some point next week. [Photos below.] Now, while that may seem like a ho-hum revelation for some, this is likely to be the culmination of a new direction for Foursquare. http://dlvr.it/1g8gC5

Woofound’s Social Events App Matches People To Places Based On Personality
Woofound, a Maryland-based startup aiming to match your personality to things you want to do, is today launching its iOS application nationwide. The app turns rating activities, places and restaurants into a simple, visual game in order to serve up highly personalized recommendations. You rate things by tapping or clicking “Me” or “Not Me” on the items suggested - it feels something like a “Hot or Not” for your interests, in fact. In addition to today’s launch, the company is also announcing it has now raised over $1 million in funding, from private investors and angel sources. http://dlvr.it/1g8VQV

TwitchTV Gets Its First In-Game Streaming Integration, Introduces A Scholarship For Competitive Gamers
Launched just about a year ago, live streaming site TwitchTV has very quickly established itself as one of the top destinations for e-sports enthusiasts who want to broadcast their gaming sessions to the world. Pretty soon it’ll be even easier for TwitchTV users to broadcast their game sessions, as the company is announcing its first in-game integration. It’s also helping to groom some new competitive gamers, thanks to a scholarship that it is launching in partnership with Alienware and SteelSeries. At the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), Paradox Interactive is announcing that upcoming game title The Showdown Effect will have TwitchTV built-in. That will let users instantly launch TwitchTV’s streaming dashboard from directly within the game, so they can start broadcasting their gameplay without jumping between applications. Paradox will be showing off the capability from TwitchTV’s booth at noon on Tuesday. http://dlvr.it/1g8Sny

Tiger Global, SV Angel-Backed Baby.com Finds Legs In An Exploding Brazilian eCommerce Market
Last October, Kimball Thomas and Davis Smith launched Baby.com.br with $4.4 million in backing from an impressive group of Silicon Valley and international investors, including Tiger Global Management, Monashees Capital, SV Angel, Felicis Ventures, Chamath Palihapitiya and Thrive Capital. For SV Angel and Felicis Ventures, this marked the first time that either firm had invested in a startup based in Brazil. Why the interest from these top investors? Well, for starters, the startup’s co-founders, Kimball Thomas and Davis Smith, had started PoolTables.com with $20K right out of business school, were able to turn a profit in their first year, and, since they didn’t raise outside funding, sold it in early 2011 for what Smith says was “a nice little profit.” But, more importantly, it gave them experience with how to work with international investors (many of which were in China) and how to run an eCommerce site. http://dlvr.it/1g7MQN
