Ma is learning all about Mashups. I thought it was all about my favourite subject – food. However, she viewed David Berlind’s video of ‘How Mashups are Created’ and now we know what a technology Mashup really is. The clip was very clear and informative.
Music and photographic mashups are a very interesting concept.
Historic images of the New York Library site, with the 360 degrees view, was amazing. Using Flickr and Google Street view makes it so easy to see the rest of the world without leaving home.
Then we looked at Houses for Sale in our area using Google Maps. It was easy to find our suburb and the houses for sale, for rent etc. We could even move the Google Map around to look at the rest of the street. The markers on the map are very clear and easy to navigate around.
