Mash Ups ----- Distribution discussion question

OK, now for today's in class exercise...in addition to RSS, you will need to understand Mash Ups .

We'll do a bit of online exploring.

Google Maps + a different application = new product or service. Let's look at Kayak. Search for a hotel or click on 'Buzz'

What do you get when you mash up Craig's List + Google Maps?? Hint

An interesting FR application - social networks + mapping = Peuplade


So here's the exercise: You can work in teams of 2
1. What Mash Up would YOU like to see? How would it help in hotel/travel distribution? Post your idea in your blog.
2. Viewing classmates' blogs, find another team's idea posting...comment on it in your blog
3. Link to the other team's idea from your posted comment.
