Business modelling looks at the world as known, stable processes - as opposed to mash-ups where content from dynamic sources with human insights for business solutions. It's not an either/or situation - but I think mashups will actually give IT modellers a common dialog to discuss what should/could be implemented. I also think you're spot on that we'll see lots of different mash ups makers in the next 12-18 months - addressing a spectrum of business type activities. We've been amazed in the POCs with customers - start with one mash up scenario & end up with a dozen building on the first. So I do think there's a huge number of applications that have been unaffordable to build/wire - till now. What can I say – I think you’re right on the money!

They key question is not so much whether this is a good idea, as whether those who control the browser ecosystem will be motivated to implement it.
