I desperately wanted Foursquare to come to Honolulu, and joined several friends in just unofficially adding Honolulu venues to Los Angeles. Then I found Gowalla, and I think they're on the right path. Foursquare is address dependent, and the website seems like an afterthought. Gowalla is GPS savvy, with refined controls, and of course gorgeous to look at.

I wrote a detailed overview of both services, as well as several others, but Gowalla took top honors. I imagine sheer buzz, though, will propel Foursquare to success. It's theirs to loose.
