I’ve tried to redesign my blog a little bit, so that it looks similar to my homepage. The design is based on the K2 Wordpress template. I hope you like it. It has some handy features, for example to switch from three columns to two columns if the browser width is not big enough. Also the navigation bar on the top of the side is very handy.

Mashups are very popular right now. But what does the word Mashup really mean? Mashups allows the user to compose imformation from different data sources and represent this combined information in a way he or she defines.

Google promoted this term recently and also created the term maplets which in fact is nothing else than the possibility to use information on the web an display this information on a map, in this case on Google Maps. But also Yahoo offers the possibility to create so called mashups. They provide a tool called Yahoo pipes. This is an visual editor for creating mashups in any variation and for different application fields. I tested it for about 10 minutes and produced a mahsup that visualize new of an austria newpaper on a map. The result is shown here:

The Yahoo Pipe application is easy to use and with some practice you could imagine how the result will look like. The flexibility is quite high. So it is possible to integrate every feed of a homepage. Additionally Yahoo services, like flickr or Yahoo local search are supported. It would be more open and flexible if also services from other companies are integrated. A drawback I noticed is that the result can not be embedded easily into your own homepage or blog. But I think Yahoo Pipes is under development progress and will include other functionallity in the future.
