BlockRocker Google Mashup

Article Date: 2006-02-01

This clever mashup from a Winnipeg, Manitoba native (I actually lived there back in my high school days) enables users to easily add items for sale and list in the online classifieds...

This is much like the familiar Craig's list concept, however, this app was developed as a mashup and uses geography as the application's main selling point... i.e. search based on geographic location. Each item listed has an associated balloon that brings up detailed information, contact info, images, etc.. when clicked.. very clever and useful... See http://www.blockrocker.com
