Mashups are all about presenting information from various sources in an integrated Web application. While early experiments with multimedia-multiweb application integration were done by savvy programmers who would effectively decode as-yet-unpublished APIs for applications such as Google Maps, currently there is a wide range of software platforms for the development of mashups, and building a mashup is becoming increasingly easy. In this hands-on tutorial, experts from Google and Yahoo! will introduce their mashup development technologies; participants will then build mashups on the spot. Emphasis will be given to mashups related to HCSNet’s Priority Areas.

Audience
