Prize Winners Announced at 2008 Mashup Camp


Mashup Camp, the unconference for the uncomputer, is in just wrapped up its sixth year in Mountain View, CA.

Dean Mao won the prize for the best mashup for his Empowerment Addon to Firefox, a context sensitive mashup hat permits you to annotate all webpages and uses natural language parsing. This add-on is too new to be approved so you'll need to register for a Mozilla account, to download it.

Mike Grishaver won the best Social Justice Mashup prize sponsored by the Elfenworks Foundation or his Social Site Badge-Builder & Poverty Awareness Badge. Anyone can anyone create a custom feed widget to embed on a website.

The Poverty Awareness Badge contains pre-selected blog entries from leading anti-poverty organizations, related Twitters, Diggs, Delicious bookmarks, Flickr photos, MyBlogLog visitors, and YouTube videos. Add this badge or build your own. The site is in private alpha beta so request an invitation or wait a few weeks till it rolls out.
