Mashups...

Mashups: Are an exciting genre of interative Web applications that draw upon content retrieved from external data sources to create entirely new and innovative services. They are a hallmark of the second generation of Web applications informally known as Web 2.0
(as defined by IBM retrieved October 31, 2007)

Ok so we get what mashups are but what’s more important is that there are online tools that allow us to create and customize our own mashups!

Flickr lets you put your photos on a map. Nice mashing!
