Foursquare as Museum Marketing Tool (2)

Is there a list with museums who already use Foursquare?

As user of Foursquare I find it quite limited, I hope this will change.
It would be great to give out badges or stars e.g. for my favorite museums, in spite of only earning them.
I would love to see Foursquare getting more interactive. I still miss lively interaction between museums and visitors in Facebook and Twitter (maybe a problem of the platform itself). Foursquare is ok to get a free drink in a coffee shop, but if a free ticket is the only award of checking in at a museum every month, I will get bored. It is not all about money. In my opinion it would be better to try to engage the visitor and award with prizes linked to the museum itself like “meet the curator” or the mayor gets invited to have a look at the treasures hidden in the storage, wow I would love that!!! And it’s pretty interactive.
