Cool stuff at Mashup Camp or bookmarks stored in a blog. Big thanks to the organizers for
running such a nice space. Cool presentations and lots of self-organized events as well.
The folks from eventful , tourfilter and hypemachine.
Somebody mentioned HousingMaps a pretty slick mashup with google maps and craigslist housing listing - along with mapbuilder - a tool for making your own mashup.
Kapow is a excellent scraper. I guess dapper is too.
Gangstamaps brought more branding and interactivity to the mashup space.
original signal -blogs that follow web mashup
Programmable web - more mashup news.
AIM instant messenger has a great api. Its super easy to get robots up and running.
Firefox plugins worth checking out:
firebug - javascript debugger
tails - good for finding microformatted tags
Kevin Lawver gave some nice presentations on microformats
Massachusetts put its geographic data on the web here : http://www.mass.gov/mgis/
There is an open api to access it all.
