Google mashup
Google apparently has registered 60-odd domains containing 'Mashup' in the name.
The Google people who visited today claimed ignorance of this despite using the word 'mashup' literally loads of times in their presentation.
I'm assuming 'mashup' to mean some sort of integration between their products, and they definitely need more of this I think. Gmail has quite a lot of integration - it shows addresses on a map or invites you add something to your Google Calendar when your email contains a relevant word, and more obviously it has a bar across the top of the screen now linking to other Google products.
It's interesting to learn Google have a team specifically working on integration between products.
