An experimental matrix of Web 2.0 mashups.
Usage: Hover the cursor over any cell in the matrix. A small box gives details on mashups for that API combination. Top links in hover box bring you to that API's reference page. Links in body of hover box take you directly to the mashup. Not all combinations have mashups & only those with the 'º' indicator currently have entries. Cells at the intersection of same API (ex: Amazon+Amazon) list any other examples for that API.

Note that there are two views into the matrix: the default view shows only those APIs for which mashups have been added to the database. The second view shows all APIs regardless of whether there's currently a mashup registered. It's big. Definitions: What is a mashup anyway? As always, it's good to check Wikipedia's definition, but essentially a "mashup" is a web-based application built through (creative) combination of data from multiple sources. Often, but by no means always, this data is retrieved by using a vendor's API such as those listed here. (An API? Also at Wikipedia.) Some recent press may also help explain: BusinessWeek's "Mix, Match and Mutate", The Economist's "Mashing the Web". Background: This is an experiment. It is intended to be both a reference point and also a visualization. What you see here today will change both in content and form shortly. I am quite interested in seeing the 'space' in which mashups exist. Clearly, some APIs such as Google Maps, appear to be more widely used than others. UI Issues: Cross-browser support is good but not complete. Sometimes it can b

After starting the test-suite it will automatically run a large number of small tests which will determine if your browser is compatible with a large number of CSS selectors. If it is not compatible with a particular selector it is marked as such. You can click on each CSS selector to see the results, including a small example and explanation for each of tests. Because it is technically not possible to simulate certain user interactions the test is limited to CSS selectors that are not dependent on user interactions. So this test-suite does not include tests for the following selectors: :hover, :active, :focus and :selection.

 Convert Image to CSS
Posted in Code, Plugins, Graphics by Elliott Back on April 25th, 2005. [Del.icio.us]

Ever wanted to take an image and convert it, pixel by pixel, into CSS, HTML, or xHTML? Well, now you can, thanks to my handy conversion tool! Just give it the URL of the image to convert, select a pixel resampling ratio, a mode, and off you go. You can also save the html. Just right click on the permalink and "save target as" to your favorite location.

    * Example: Born into Brothels [via]
    * Example: Cambridge, England [via]
    * Massive deforestation [via]

Note: If you give a very large image, with a very small pixel ratio, the image could take a long time to load, or eventually overload your browser with multiple megabytes of web information. These "images" are very large!
