Thing 6: Mashups
When I hear the word mashup, I automatically thought it was when DJs mixed two songs together, so the media mashups were totally new to me. I found some mashups that I would like to use personally, and some I would like to use in my career. I loved http://www.programmableweb.com/mashup/1000-songs
This website has a list of 1000 songs everone must hear before they die. You can listen to the songs and look at lyrics.
I really liked http://animalphotos.info/a/ . This website combines Flickr and search engine to search animal photos.
http://addroo.com/src/ is a search engine that when you type in a search photos, video clips, and news articles come up. This would be a powerful search engine for students researching online.

    I was waiting for someone to mention the DJ mashups. That is exactly what I was thinking too. I guess this use of the word follows suit...not all mashups are great but some are really good!
