GetGlue: Media geeks get together
With GetGlue, you don't check into physical localities. Instead, you check into your favourite movies, TV shows and more. Doing so enables your GetGlue friends to see what you're doing for entertainment right now instead of depending on you to log your interests as on a Facebook fan page. The kicker to this site is that checking in gives you access to discounts associated with your different interests, plus actual stickers related to your favourite shows and bands, so you can cover your stuff with them.
