We had the pleasure of
sitting down with two of the Google Mashup Editor team to discuss the product and how
developers can use it to build mashups in short order.
We start out by discussing what the product
actually is. The term "mashup" is a very overloaded term out there, so a mashup editor could
do a number of things. What are the pieces? How does it compare to other tools like Yahoo!
Pipes (complementary!)? What are the user and global feeds?
We then
delve into practices for building your mashups, and discuss good examples that are out there.
We finish up discussing areas that the team would like to delve into as the product
evolves.
