Thing #6 - Mashups and 3rd Party Sites

These sites were really neat and gave lots of ideas and possibilities for their use in the library. Mappr is cool because you could create a map and find postcard images using Flickr's Creative Commons section to map where your students, teachers, or staff have been during summer vacation. The Mosaic Maker and the FD Toy's Trading Card Maker would be great tools to help promote titles in your library by putting a spin on the book trailer concept. I especially liked the Flickr Color Picker because it produced some very beautiful images according to almost every color on the color palette and would be great way to collaborate with an art teacher.
