Two great new products from the Sunlight Founation
It’s a busy week for the folks at the Sunlight Foundation, which released two new web apps: Punch Clock Campaign, a Google map mashup of seven members of Congress’ daily schedules; and OpenCongress’ Facebook app to share your favorite bills on your Facebook profile.
Flickr quietly rolled out two great new syndication options; in addition to the normal feed link at the bottom of every page, you can now get a feed for only geotagged photos, or get a KML version to load into Google Earth. This is really cool: if you want to access photos that are tagged with a location (for making a map mashup, for instance), you can just get it right from Flickr without running the feed through an external application.
This mashup shows crime reports in DC neighborhoods
This mashup shows crime reports in DC neighborhoods. The Washington Post is really putting out some great technology content, experimenting with social news and data mashups. This map shows crime in my neighborhood, Adams Morgan.
