Flickr Mashup

When I looking for mashups the most interesting ones to me that I found were
http://www.flickrspy.com, http://www.applefritter.com/bannedbooks, and http://www.cellreception.com. Okay, on the last two are a little off the Flickr topic this week but they still are mashups.

So, what are theses mashups. The first one
http://www.flickrspy.com shows what was recently loaded to Flickr. If you are bored and need to waste a little time...

The second one for us librarian types,
http://www.applefritter.com/bannedbooks, shows what books have been banned mashed with a map. I would love to have this with the book cover image instead of the dot but it works.

The last one show you I'm thinking of changing cell services,
http://www.cellreception.com., shows you where the cell towers are with a map.

I've used mash-ups before for crime data but I don't have that one handy at the moment but they are very good for information like that and most of the local news sites carry them.
