Foursquare datasets http://www.public.asu.edu/~hgao16/dataset.html are zip archives protected by passwords so you would need to contact the authors and fulfil additional requirements (e.g. email on .edu domain). From the page there: "Due to the privacy issues, the data availability depends on the requester's research background. Please contact Huiji.Gao@asu.edu for more details."

Unfortunately not all the people can be eligible to get the access to datasets like this, so may be it worth to add an additional note or something.

This project deserves more improvement in the future, including short intro, data access type info etc., after the community's on-going contribution. My aim is to make a Task View-like (http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/) list for open data view. I think its very useful for researchers and designers to find what they want quickly. Or maybe can we make up a place for people to present, discuss, and collaborate their work. Nice reminding, thanks. :)
