.tv A very nice travel .TV site

While I was searching for ways of developing my geo .TVs, I stumbled onto Lonelyplanet.TV.

http://www.lonelyplanet.tv/Map.aspx

shows a nice mashup of google map and other travel features.

Anybody have an idea on how to create mashups of APIs (Travel.yahoo.com type site would be nice) or know any scripts that are on sale?

I think that we can see a huge breakthrough for our geo .TVs if we can figure out how to mashup APIs nicely or find/buy scripts to modify/purchase.

This is huge news imo, lonelyplanet.com is an extremely big and established website for backpackers and the bbc have just bought a share in the website.Earning the husband and wife team that started it something in the region of £66 million

http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/bb...sreleases/2007/10_october/lonely_planet.shtml.

If you go to the .com they have added a new feature for videos which then takes you to the .tv site.
It is great that they felt the need to use .tv for their video related site.




Nice info!
