Thing 5: Mashups

To be honest, I never heard of mashups before exploring this activity.  But as I was exploring, I have been using "mashups" for a while not just not realizing those applications where called mashups. 

My obviously favorite mashup is from http://www.bighugelabs.com/.  I have been using this site for years.  I started using this application for just myself and teacher lead activities.  I then took it out to the students and had them create their own trading cards.  They are also created their own movie posters and other activities from that site.

Here is a trading card that I made just playing around this morning.
