What is a mashup? - ZDNet

At the whiteboard with David Berlind from ZDNet.
Developers are getting creative, taking APIs from multiple Websites and merging them to form new, innovative applications. Frozenbear.com merges Google maps and Singles to let you know where the single people are in your neighborhood. Parkingcarma.com helps you track down parking spaces in the Bay Area. ZDNet Executive Editor David Berlind says mashups are the fastest growing ecosystem on the Web and that by 2007, there will be 10 new mashups per day.

this is an ad for markers?

Very informative and easy to understand. So often I've run into concepts or disciplines (like computer scripting) that looked and sounded really complex, and had experts in the field try to explain it to me as if I were a fellow expert and should be getting it. Then when someone like this explains it in layman's terms, I get it right away, and it turns out to be a lot simpler than I thought.

This isn't David Berlind, it's Greg Proops lol. Never heard of api mashups before, just for songs.

Some of us make a living out of development, web systems integration and other technological means, instead of taking mass quantities of ecstasy, robbing your neighbours TV and sticking two songs together with your dick
