The visualization was mostly created with Processing (processing.org). The data was provided by our data team from the hadoop/hive infrastructure they've built for analytical purposes (more on that here: engineering.foursquare.com/​2011/​03/​24/​big-data-foursquare-slides-from-our-recent-talk/​). I created the map tiles using a great open source app called TileMill (mapbox.com/​tilemill/​), and loaded them into my Processing sketch with the Modest Maps library (code.google.com/​p/​modestmaps/​). A few things at the end were added with After Effects (the zoom-in bubbles and the glow on the category bars).
