The homepage tells me nothing about what this company is. And it seems I'm required to grant lots of access to my Facebook account in order to find out. Sorry, moving on.
We'll work on communicating our product on the homepage better. We want just what we need from FB users, so we'll double check the extended permissions we request.
Twitter login coming soon.

I noticed that people rarely use the foursquare "to-do" section, so started working on a similar project a few weeks ago.
There are lots of interesting things you can do with the data once you get it.
You appear to be going more along the lines of a 43things/plancast. I'm not going for the exact same space, but I'm sure there is some overlap.
I'm not sure I get the name 8tysix. Is there a reference I'm missing?
Overall, I like your homepage design. But once I get into the app, there are lots of alignment issues and stuff that I'm not digging.
I suspect you just rushed this out to get some feedback, but I would have liked to see more of a polish on the beta.

Regarding the name "86". Back when I worked in a restaurant and we were out of cobbler (for example) we'd tell the servers to "86 the cobbler" so they'd know we were out of it and to not take anymore orders for it.
I suppose the meaning is for you to "86" your to-do item meaning to 'get it done.'
Seems Urban Dictionary has some plausible definitions: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=86

Awesome feedback.
Name will definitely be changing so watch out for that.
The design is also going to get a serious overhaul in the next few weeks, so watch out for that, too :)

Interesting. Kinda like plancast events without firm dates.
From the title I was hoping for some kind of social analysis showing that people check in to foursquare locations where they wish they hung out more :-P

Why is the application asking me for all this permissions :
- Includes name, profile picture, gender, networks, user ID, list of friends, and any other information I've shared with everyone.
- Send me email
- Post to my Wall
- Access my data any time
- Current City

- Send me email
- Post to my Wall
- Access my data any time
- Current City
- First one is standard
- Once you have groups together we want to be able to reach out to with places/times/deals to get you to go out. Not something we're advertising yet, but something we want to explore.
- To get your friends on board, we need to share it, so that's why we ask for permission to post to your wall.
- We do a lot of work async in sharing items with your friends hence offline access.
- When coordinating a plan, location is important. We don't use it yet, but will soon.
