Do you ever wish there was a way to track your foursquare checkin habits and develop them in a positive way? Tally4 is a new web application designed to do just that.

Tally4 tracks your foursquare checkins and lets you star the ones that fit your “areas of interest,” such as running, volunteering or just about anything else you can think of. Once you’ve starred a few checkins in a particular area, Tally4 remembers it and stars similar checkins in the future.

There are two ways to use Tally4′s tracking. You can compete against friends with similar interests by accumulating points based on your starred checkins. A leaderboard keeps you aware of how you’re doing in the “competition.”

Alternatively, individuals can use the calendar view to track their progress, by tracking the number of consecutive days with starred checkins (they show as purple on the calendar). Founder Eric Johnson likens it to the Jerry Seinfeld’s “don’t break the chain” method that he uses to force himself to write daily in an effort to become a better writer.

Tally4 is yet another interesting way to use foursquare’s checkin data. Do you have any activities you’d like to track with Tally4?
