Wasting Time with Web 2.0

A great way to kill some time on a Friday...check out Zillow.com.  Enter your address and see all the home values in your neighborhood superimposed onto a Google satellite map. Just so you can say you learned something today, the term for this type of application is a mashup. A mashup is a web site that combines content from more than one source. In this case, Google satellite maps and real estate data. Have fun looking at your neighbors' home values.
