Thing 40 Mashups on the Web

I first tried http://tinyurl.com/clszf6 (Let Me Google that for You) with the search libraries in the twin cities. It's fun to watch it type the question.

I doubt I'd ever use lazylibrary.com but I could see students interest in it. The website did not pull up when I went to look at it.

Libworm would be interesting but I don't have the time to sift thru 1400+ RSS feeds.

I was going to try travlr but it required a download. Phreetings did not work. I used Bighugelabs previously and wanted something new. I'm not into the "perfect outfit".

Here's one that appears to work:
http://www.dapper.net/transform.php?dappName=TVOnMediaNewsFeedTVShowsOnDVDandmore&transformer=HTML&applyToUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.tvonmedia.com%2Fnewsfeed.xml

Or not.

Wheel of Lunch was fun to play. http://www.coverpop.com/wheeloflunch/

They can be fun to play with, but alot of them don't seem to work well.
