Why Apple should buy Square & Foursquare

This is an interesting and makes sense at multiple levels: Apple should acquire both Foursquare and Square.

To summarize: after the deal, Apple will immediately become a giant payments company, with an installation base that is expected to encompass half of all mobile devices sold. The company will have the best local search abilities, far exceeding any existing recommendation engine. And due to its enormous reach, it will possess a payment system that merchants will line up to support.

Apple dominates mobile sales. Mobile apps. Music. Why not electronic payment and local search as well. Makes sense to me.

TV hostess, singer, and supermodel RuPaul* was at the Red Arrow Diner in Manchester, NH this morning. Why you might ask? She told Politico, ”I’m going to N.H. on a mission to spread love and set the record straight: contrary to recent reports, I am not Ron Paul. And I am not running for president of the United States. I hope to meet Ron Paul in person so we can be seen together to put the rumors to rest once and for all.”

*I have to admit I had to use Google to determine exactly who this individual was .
