MashupIdeaBrainstorm - Raymond Yee's Wiki

Wikipedia

"Wikipedify" MIT OpenCourseWare. Put all the MIT OpenCourseware materials into the Wikipedia or a separate Wikipedia-like installation and put an interface that compares the new version with the original.
Wikipedia + Britannica mashup -- try to bring the two up close -- maybe one in the context of the other via Greasemonkey
Find some way to sync up Wikipedia names with tags

improved authoring around 2 or more Flickr images in the context of a blog entry. Flickr makes it easy to blog one image -- but how about sets or just a couple of images
suggesting Flickr tags similarly to Google Suggest and drawing upon Flickr Services: Flickr API: flickr.tags.getRelated
as I'm tagging, a popup window showing what other tags and pictures I have with certain tags pops up to help me regularize my tagging.
bulk editing of titles and descriptions for pictures
a database that really syncs my desktop and Flickr representations of my pictures

a greasemonkey script that will look up all the info it can get about the page I am currently looking at: google backlinks, who else on delicious has submitted it, technorati tags -- while preserving my privacy as much as can be done.
an interface to have tracked the web-pages that I read and interface to edit it so that I can easily post them to delicious and other social bookmarking tools and for me to generate a blog entry for the day.
universal copy and paste: http://lesscode.org/2005/11/02/half-a-baby-step/#comment-754

a system to let me start tagging any object in my own computer
a system to bring together tags from across the many systems that use tags so that I can search for "Bach" and it brings back Flickr, delicious, desktop, email

Thunderbird extension to let me start tagging my email (it didn't exist the last time I looked)

an API that lets me use any of the big mapping services (google maps/google earth , Yahoo, Microsoft, interchangeably (perhaps this has been done)
once geobloggers is back up, an interface between google earth and geobloggers API that would give us the same zoom in anywhere and see what Flickr pictures comes up.

seamless flows of outlines among EccoPro, my wiki(s), my blog(s), http://backpackit.com, OPML readers, [codejedi.com - Home of Shadow Plan for Palm OS, etc.

tools that let me do classroom/grade management via my OpenOfficeOrg spreadsheet that then talks via web services to bSpace and all the other systems that I need to do data-entry or retrieval for.
automagically moving stuff from this wiki to the class website.

unified bibliographic management that lets me use Endnote, http://refworks.com, delicious, BibTeX, etc all interchangeably
a book-management database that combines a database for books I've owned, read, thinking about that has hooks out to the book-related sources that I care about. A pale start: http://raymondyee.net/projects/biblio/bookInfo.py?isbn=0596102453

a program that automates the whole workflow for getting pictures off my camera right to Flickr. Right now, there are too many steps

a widget that translates among wiki syntaxes, my outline, BibTeX, OO.o, MS documents, HTML so I can write my text one place and move anywhere.
