In a cold morning in Montreal, we needed nothing more than a hot debate to warm us up. Unfortunately, the presentation and the debate on Mash-ups were rather lukewarm, even with reps from the BBC and Google in attendance.

The main topics of discussion focussed on the concepts and programming techniques for the creation of Mash-ups (Web site or Web application which combines continuously evolving content from different sources).

Usability issues were barely mentioned and the audience was asleep at the wheel.
