We’re about half way through the Q2 Bug Battle, which is comparing three of the most popular “check-in” applications. That would be Foursquare, Gowalla and Brightkite.

So how’s it going so far? Well, with less than five days remaining, we’ve already had more than 350 testers participate and a combined total of  650+ reported bugs!  The depth and quality of the defects is nothing short of amazing, but we’ve come to expect no less from our tester community.

Of course, there’s still a long way to go – and nearly $4,000 in prize money still up for grabs. Remember, the Bug Battle ends Monday, May 24th at noon ET, so be sure to log in to your uTest account and start submitting bugs before it’s too late.

As with previous competitions, it’s all about quality and not quantity. If you want more specific tips on how to win the Bug Battle – by focusing on mobile bugs, social media integration, etc. – then check out this dedicated thread in the uTest Forums.

Happy bug-hunting and good luck!
