Abstract
So far, we have mostly been working with techniques for back-end, server-side programming. This chapter is a bit of a departure, and it should be fun: you’ll create a mashup web application using the Twitter web services and Google Maps web services to display locations mentioned in your friends’ Twitter “tweets.” Mashups use either public APIs from existing web sites and/or web scraping to collect data and combine it one a single web page.
