Mashup (web application hybrid), a web application that combines data and/or functionality from more than one source.
The next wave of web applications will use existing services to mix and match information. With web 2.0 you had AJAX and SOA. We now have many web pages that offer services to developers this allows us to consumer the information from those services on our websites! There is no need to reinvent the wheel. All we have to do is hitch a ride and develop some code that mixes those services. Even google is mashing their own content. Web 3.0 will also utilize mobile devices. Think about this you have a facebook event you map it with google maps and you have your phone remind you of the event.

What does web 2.0 do for artists and musicians. It will eliminate all the middlemen. Over a nice frosty glass of suds Raffal and I discussed the eminent death of the middlemen last Friday @ Sullivans. Look what Radiohead has gone and done with In RainBows they have said sionora to their label and offered their latest album for free or pay. They have already sold approximately 1.2 Million records at roughly $2 a record. OK what does that mean? They split up the profits and call it good. They are making all the money not the label! Just look around with youtube moving towards advertising artist will be able to sell ads and make money off of videos too. This will ultimately lead to more freedom for the artists and more profit. Oh and NIN, Oasis, Madonna, and Jamiroquai or all thinking about following! See you later RIAA guess you guys will be jobless?.
Oh and for those of you who haven’t got it yet MTV is dead if you want to watch music videos you now have to go to YouTube.com. It is better you only have to watch the videos that don’t suck.
Well I have been very busy working on my blogging engine. I have made great progress! The basic blogging engine is working and I am currently working on special features that utilize various apis… Think mash-up. I currently have many working examples. I will need to add a great deal of polish because it is still very rough but it is getting their! I can give you access if you request it. It will be a “web 3.0 application”..
I have also installed the gusty gibbon and it flys. It has the best support for graphics cards out of the box, I have ever seen on Linux. It is lightning fast and wonderful to use in general. So if you have not tried out ubuntu yet I strongly suggest giving it a try it. I thought Fiesty Fawn was great but the latest version of Ubnutu is by far the easiest to use and most efficient version yet.

Why is it free? Because i-create is built by the people for the people. This space is not only mine but yours as well. I want people to create meaningful rich content. I also want the people on here to play well with others, share experiences, laugh, and live life to its fullest. The gauge for content is could your mother or child read this and find it exceptable? Hopefully the answer is yes! I encourage creatives and others as well to embrace i-create. I have been sitting here wondering, what is it that I need to do to have more people on here creating content? Do I need to actually show a video on just how easy it is to use??? This has more features than blogger.com. I also protect my flock from lame users. I reserve the right to ban anyones ip without any questions and or delete a user completely. So if you are alright with the gauge rules than please come out and play all day.
