# Mapdango tops Mashup Camp charts

[Mapdango](http://www.mapdango.com/search.php?q=UG9ydGxhbmQsIE9SLCBVU0EqUG9ydGxhbmQsIE9SLCBVU0EqNDUuNTIzMTA0Ki0xMjIuNjcwMTMy "Mapdango"), a slick mapping mashup from Portland-based [CartoSoft](http://cartosoft.com "Cartosoft") that has always impressed me, has now impressed a whole heck of a lot more people—including some folks down in [Mountain View, CA](http://www.mapdango.com/search.php?q=TW91bnRhaW4gVmlldywgQ0EsIFVTQSpNb3VudGFpbiBWaWV3LCBDQSwgVVNBKjM3LjQwMDQ3Ki0xMjIuMDcyOTgx "Mountain View, CA")—by winning the Best Mashup at [Mashup Camp](http://www.mashupcamp.com/ "Mashup Camp").

[According to Andres Ferrate](http://www.blinkgeo.com/2008/03/day-two-mashup-camp/ "Andres Ferrate"), CartoSoft’s Head Honcho and the development power behind Mapdango *\[Editor: Emphasis is mine\]*:

> There were some great mashups in the contest, including several location-based product availability mashups, some mobile mashups (very cool to think about the emerging possibilities of mashing stuff around for devices), iMovie mashups, a Flickr history mashup, and more. Unfortunately I didn’t get a chance to see all of the mashups that were competing. **Nice to think the little mashup from Portland gave those Silicon Valley mashups a run for the bling bling**.
