Mash-up Era, Mash-up King
Mashing up Web apps is the new buzz concept. According to the wikipedia definition, a mash-up is ” a website or web application that seamlessly combines content from more than one source into an integrated experience”.
More than buzz, that’s one of the most important point of the new web paradigm: Being able in a few minutes to assemble different internet services:
- Assemble Salesforces.com web services with Google maps to see the last deal you closed by geographically.
- Assemble ebay web services and paypal ones to create an online shop without a 1ko of storage and CPU. This demo is one of the favorite of one of the mash-up evangelist-before-the-term-even-occurs, namely Jean-Paul Figer from Capgemini
Ning.com is a service to assemble services. Many more to come.
Linux guys usually say “Put back fin into computing. Use Linux”. I feel that Web 2.0 is bringing back fun to the Web !
