Abstract
Web 2.0 has emerged as the business ideology and development paradigm for the next generation of web applications. This paper proposes the use of personalisation techniques to enhance the functionality of web mashups, one of the most popular Web 2.0 applications. A prototype of a personalised travel assistant which combines interactive maps with public data pulled from the Internet is presented. An experimental study with the prototype points at opportunities and challenges mashups bring to personalisation research.
