Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose

Foursquare (free) Whether within India or during his great escape to Germany via Afghanistan or while rallying troops throughout the globe, Subhash Chandra Bose would have found the free app Foursquare very useful.

Imagine the Führer’s ire to note Netaji becoming the mayor of a coffee shop in Berlin. Think about the relief of Indians to find that Bose had last checked in at the Tokyo International Airport. Knowing Netaji, though, he would have kept his check-ins ‘private’.
