Mash ups

Really liked the idea of mash ups.
Created a library calendar for my blog, but I have also geo tagged some of my photos taken in Norway.
One of the best uses we could make of this tool is to attach text to our local history picture files.
A group of work for the dole participants did a history of Parkes. They loaded images, put text and music with them I think they used mash ups. I thought it was very clever when I saw it and it certainly brightens up the page and makes it more interesting.

Did the state library use mash ups when they were digitising their early records.

We could also use mashups for the kids for holiday time activities. Would be great
