What is a mashup?
I have recently have been hearing the term mashup thrown around a lot. To not be left behind, I looked up the Wikipedia entry on mashups. According to the article a mashup is a web application hybrid. By including content or functionality offered through third party services (typically through web services), making a new application in a unique way not offered by any individual service.
I was supervised to find that a number of companies offer mashup editors. Google has one in beta (I could not check it out because it has limited user accounts). Yahoo has one that is called ‘Pipes’.
Now you know.
