Week Ten - Mashups

Wow! I didn't realise that mashups could be so easy. I thought that because more than one application was involved it must be difficult so I had avoided mashups entirely as being beyond my scope, but with an assistant like Big Huge Toys it was really easy (sounds like a testimonial for a BHLabs advertisement!?) This was a great discovery and conquering week for Learning 2.0. I don't as yet have many ideas for using mashups in my library. The calandar is good and the mosaic maker could be used for a libraries photo page; Google maps could also have a role. Now I've discovered mashups aren't such a big deal I would like to explore and discover more applications that could be useful in a library environment.
