Where do people wait in South Korea?

Qminder App offers remote queuing from smartphones. It is a
convenient way to get a ticket up-front and from a distance or obtain
the freedom to be mobile and not be forced to stand in the waiting-room
for your number to be called out.

This location-based mobile feature has made quite a few people draw a
parallel with “checking-in” with Foursquare.

Foursquare is a location-based social network which has more than 25
million users, 3 billion check-ins, with 6.2 million added daily.Besides people sharing their whereabouts, they also share photos and
tips about worthwhile locations and Foursquare makes wonderful
recommendations
based on that information.

(Did you know you can Sign-Up
for Qminder with Foursquare and if you have claimed a venue we will pull
venue information automatically)

We at Qminder are all familiar with
Foursquare. Some of us use it daily to
check in, others just to Explore new locations. And it is not just for
personal use either – more than one million businesses are using their
Merchant Platform.

Over the weekend at the time of writing this article, they held a
#4sqhackathon,
a weekend hackers' event, which in essence is similar to Garage48,
where Qminder got started.
We didn't make it to NYC or SF for the official
event on that occasion, but that didn't stop us from taking part.

The problem of waiting lines is clear from their platform as well.
Warnings about waiting lines, lengths of queues, and some of the most
frequent “tips” and
comments left
about locations. The #HateOfWait is a powerful thing!

So to give power to the people, to make your cries heard, we are a
trying a new feature in Qminder App where you can vote for
place that should use Qminder.
This gives us the information where you want to see Qminder, and it's a
clear sign for the businesses how unhappy their customers are about
waiting lines.

We have already data coming in around the world.
We haven't been to South Korea, but we know where their waiting lines
are.

We all mind waiting!
