Pinterest teams up with Foursquare and Openstreet map to introduce "Place Pins".
Now you you can add a map option to your board so you can place your pin on the map provided by openstreetmap and vice versa. You can easily and foursquare photos related to your business to one of your boards.
If you click on a geolocated pins, this, will reveal the foursquare related business alongside with a link to take you to the corresponding business on foursquare.
This is great because you can create place related boards for your business.

How can you do that 

Creating a board of Place Pins is simple.
Just toggle “Add a map” when you create a new board or edit an existing board’s settings. After that, you can map all of your new and existing Pins to the board. 
You can undo this action by editing your board and switch off "Add a map" option. 
Beware if have already added a map in a pin this will stay as is.
