Mashup

A mashup is a lightweight (web) application that offers new functionality by combining, aggregating and transforming data and services available on the web. For example the prototypical mashup iMusicMash brings together data on artists from Yahoo Search, Eventful, Twitter and Wikipedia for a music reference that can be accessed from iPhones and Android phones.
