Usage
-----

### _checkin_ - Allows you to check-in to a place.

First, create a new Foursquare instance with your Basic Authentication
credentials:

@foursquare = Foursquare.new("user@example.com", "sekret")

Then, you can check in with a venue id (vid):

@foursquare.checkin(:vid => 1234) # => A specific venue id
@foursquare.checkin(:venue => "Mamoun's") # => A name search for venue

Or you can check in with a name search for a venue:

If successful, you will get a response hash with the following keys:
@foursquare.checkin(:venue => "Mamoun's")

#### ID
