/*Mayor Michael Bloomberg*/ announced Monday that the city will work with /*Foursquare*/ to allow visitors and residents to digitally check in when they arrive at public spaces. The city also will reward people with a virtual badge when they check in at enough parks and cultural centers.
Officials also plan to draft the city's Web developers to help revamp the nyc.gov web site.
Bloomberg says the city will hold a weekend-long "hackathon" in which developers and designers will be invited to create prototypes for the site.
The city plans to launch a streamlined /*Facebook*/ page that will eventually offer resident polls and be linked to 311.
