Have you heard of word Mashup yet? If not you probably have seen it! I will explain in short where you can create own mashup’s

What is Mashup?

In technology, a mashup is a web application that combines data from more than one source into a single integrated tool; an example is the use of cartographic data from Google Maps to add location information to real-estate data from Craigslist, thereby creating a new and distinct web service that was not originally provided by either source.
