DISQUS

Paul Knegten I agree -- as a non-developer myself -- that some of these tools are kind of out of a lot of our leagues. That's one of our biggest motivations at Dapper: to try to bridge that gap as much as possible and deliver a service that we believe most people want in a way they can all use it.

A big part of that is leveraging the feeds our users create, so that you can come to Dapper and find what you need for your mashup without having to actually create the feeds yourself. We're doing that with Facebook too -- throw in feeds others have created to your Facebook profile at http://apps.facebook.com/dapperapp/ (or add your own Dapps)

That's a start in the direction of really becoming a "repository" of mashup elements rather than an merely a tool for creating them. I think that will help make these tools more useful for all of us.
