Mash It Up

Wednesday April 23, 2008

Earlier this week chip giant Intel released a beta version if its new browser extension, Mash Maker. This powerful tool gives you the ability to combine content from multiple sources such as RSS feeds, videos, maps, and more for the purpose of viewing them all in one place. You can create your own mashups or let the extension provide you with personalized mashups of its own.

The possibilities are literally endless with Mash Maker. For example, you may want to combine local restaurant reviews, a calorie calculator, and driving directions to these eateries all in one location. This is a possibility, and all you'll need is this extension along with either the Firefox or Internet Explorer browser. The ability to create your own Widgets within Mash Maker expands its functionality even further, and the best part is you don't have to be an expert to understand the extension's API. Hundreds of mashups made by other users are already available free of charge. Although Intel may appear to be an unlikely source for a browser extension of this magntitude, they've really hit a home run here. Download Mash Maker Beta today and take control over how you view the Web!
