After looking at these sites it's clear that I've been taking advantage of Mashups for quite a while without knowing it. Since I have never entirely embraced flickr and twitter I wasn't all that excited about the Mashups between them. But I did get more interested when I started looking through the Google Mashups and the ones created for the Apps for Democracy contest.
One Mashup that I found particularly intriguing is #Ask4Stuff a trial service whereby you use Twitter to find results within Worldcat. The reports from people using it were positive, however when I tried it I never received any results. Perhaps I'm just not using it correctly?
