YAPIS is something that can assist in it. I don't know the project well 
but it seems to extract POI from Foursquare and GeoCaching and something 
else.

Examples:
POI from Foursquare for Bonn 
http://yapis.geoclub.de/foursquare.php?lat=50.7358511&lon=7.1006599
POI from Foursquare for Kópavogur 
http://yapis.geoclub.de/foursquare.php?lat=64.0886611&lon=-21.826357252719

Users can use this info to add to the map using normal OSM editors, I 
just noticed a couple of these yesterday in Kópavogur.

Would like to know more about YAPIS though if anyone on the list can 
divulge more - could integrate it into a thing I'm working on regarding 
POI (not just place of business) and data quality in OSM.
