Mashup Examples | Map | Music | | Photo | Video | Google Maps Satellite Image

Mashup is a new type of web application that brings together several sources of data to form a unique new combination of information. Mashups originated from the world of pop music where DJs would mix two or more songs together to present a new blended version.

The Mashup phenomena has proliferated to other media including maps, photos, and videos. The great interest in Mashups stems not only from the usefulness that arises from the combined application but also from the novelty of viewing traditional information in a different way.

A classic example of a Mashup is the integration of business addresses and online maps so that you could quickly see where all the bookstores or hospitals are located in your neighborhood. Another map application can integrate all the homes for sale in a region and plot their location on a map. Clicking on a specific pushpin location brings up information on that particular home.
