It's destiny. When I felt pressure of not knowing those geographical tools, Mike Greer introduced one way of using Flickr API to mash up some photos onto a page in Dynamic Web Design class. I felt it's a good start now, otherwise, I really felt 'mash up' is something very abstract for me. Of course, there are still too many technical things I can't figure out yet. Although I know the idea should come first, it's still hard to plan something with the uncertainty of being capable of doing it.

BTW, here is a map of Edinburgh World Heritage. Initially, I kept it for myself to exploring the story of this world heritage site when I moved in this city. I took it as an example of the interface design of our future project. I like something is old, something remember past times. The interface of Google Map seems too modern to me. Hopefully, we could lean how to integrate our own designed interface into some easy-to-use map tools.
