There's a good reason [Foursquare](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Foursquare/) has an Overshare badge. Still, that hasn't stopped the location service from rolling out an update to Android users that simplifies broadcasting your position to the world. The Android check-in screen now matches that of the iOS app with a more streamlined appearance that more quickly shares updates with Facebook and Twitter; mentioning friends is easier as well. As long as your social circle doesn't mind knowing that you checked into three different [dance](http://www.engadget.com/tag/dancing) clubs in one night, Foursquare's update awaits at the source.
