Everything from restaurants and open houses to concerts, gas, and golf courses could be sent to the Dash and appear there on your screen. Owners will be able to manage which mashups they receive through Dash's Website. There, they will be able to drag feeds from sites like [Platial](http://crunchbase.com/organization/platial), where they can create a Google Map of dog runs in San Francisco or yoga schools in LA. Link it to [Zillow](http://crunchbase.com/organization/zillow), and you will be able to get data on houses as you are driving around the neighborhood. Create a feed at Upcoming.org about all the rock concerts in your city or one of open houses from Craigslist, and you will be able to get the info in your car, along with how far away each place is. You will also be able to do a Yahoo Local search on the device for restaurants and it will return nearby results with ratings.

Platial

Angel Round in 2005
Platial, "the people's atlas", is a map making, map searching and map exploration site all in one. Like most map sites these days, Platial takes advantage of the Google Maps API to extend its capabilities. The site is a simple mashup with a social layer and UGC twist. Platial users are interested in documenting their own travels as well as seeing those of other users. Platial's key feature is a map creation tool that lets anyone put locations markers over any point on the map they've visited and then annotate it with pictures and comments. A Google Adsense text advertisement appears on each annotation to match the context in each place. Users can tag each stop on their map as well as see other users that have been there. Clicking on a Tag will take you to a menu of other destinations with similar features. Clicking on another user who has been to any given location will take you to his/her map that shares that location. By networking this way, users can uncover the best places to go in any region quickly and easily. Google maps has less functionality than Platial, yet now allows users to create custom/sharable maps. The "Where I've Been" Facebook application [Acquired by TripAdvisor](http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/08/16/tripadvisor-acquires-facebook-app-where-i%E2%80%99ve-been-for-3-million/) provides a service with a similar goal. Platial has widgets for [Facebook](http://crunchbase.com/organization/facebook), [MySpace](http://crunchbase.com/organization/myspace), [Friendster](http://crunchbase.com/organization/friendster) and Wordpress.
