Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ChicagoCrime.org combines data from multiple sources, specifically crime data and Google Maps, into a new application or service, which is a prime example of a mashup. The site is not necessarily an example of cloud computing, as it does not appear to offer any computing resources. It is also not an example of a widget or SOA, as it is a standalone application rather than a component or service that can be integrated into other applications.
