What is the benefit of a mashboard? How does a mashboard differ from a mashup? For a number of business scenarios, the easiest way to answer these questions is to identify the swivel-chair phenomenon associated with information monitoring and then focus on integration to yield productivity enhancements.
The manual 'swivel-chair' approach to information monitoring is time consuming and reactionary in a number of industries. For example, consider the tasks associated with a performance engineer at a Cable Network Operator in the telecommunications industry or the Treasury Analyst at a financial institution who monitors real-time analytics from a variety of transactional systems. In both of these scenarios the knowledge worker typically sits in a chair in front of a console of displays and monitors a number of disparate applications.

As I talk to customers and analysts about Enterprise Mashups, I find it helpful to draw an analogy between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. During Web 1.0, the emphasis was on e-commerce and the enabling technologies were HTML and XML. As we enter the Web 2.0 era the emphasis seems to be on Situation Applications that are being enabled by Ajax, Web Services, Wikis, Blogs and Content Syndication (RSS/Atom). These enablers will yield a variety of benefits that were not associated with the prior web application era, namely, rich content, richer experiences, collaboration, adaptability and flexibility. |

At the ESRI UG Conference last week I had an interesting conversation with Jim Martin of MiSWACO, a worldwide company representing a wide array of businesses involved in drilling, reservoir drill-in and completion fluids and associated services for the petroleum industry. Jim presented me with a real world example that demonstrated the value of geospacial visual aids as well as the productivity benefits of Mashup Makers.

During the last few weeks of July and the early part of August 2006, a large section of the USA was dealing with extreme heat and humidity. Up and down the east coast and across most of the mid-section, US parks and beaches were exposed to consecutive days of extreme heat which had an impact on the health of local beaches. How would beach officials and citizens be proactively aware of the impact heat, stagnation and other factors had on their beach destinations?
