Still Flickring

The term "mashups" reminds me of some horrible accident on the road or in the kitchen, but the concept is interesting. It's a logical outgrowth of web users' experimentation with permutations and combinations of sites. One mashup that caught my attention is depictr, which takes poems or song lyrics and pulls images from Flickr related to them to create a picture. You could, for example, get a visualization of the song that's been going through your head all day (well, maybe not THAT one--pick another song that hasn't been driving you crazy). See http://www.mcharper.com/lab/proxy/flickry.htm to get the idea.
