We woke up yesterday to the news that TIME has named Gowalla to their 50 Best Websites 2010 list. Time says:

The brightly colored badges and the zany-fun interface (as well as the ability to add photos and create trips around locations) make Gowalla the coolest interactive passport there is.

I’m not sure we could say it any better. Also, this is likely the first time Time published the words “zany-fun.” We’re grateful for the love!
