Google Map mashups are just the start

Care of ProgrammableWeb, a pointer to an insightful InfoWorld blog post that highlights the difference between visual and non-visual mashups:

"Truth-be-told, while visual mashups are cool and useful, I think that non-visual mashups will be more valuable to business as time goes on."

I would perhaps edit this slightly and suggest that non-visual (or even non-map) mashups will be more valuable inside or between businesses over time.

PS I can't help myself... for a bit of fun, have a look at Goggles, a flying game based on Google Maps. I hope someone gives the author a job for this great effort!
