I've always referenced chicagocrime.org as an interesting "mashup".
Nightly it pulls from a crime database or two in Chicago and updates its
own database, and ties that in with Google maps and provides a very
searchable interface.
I didn't know how searchable until watching this video of Adrian
Holovaty, the site's creator, give a demo of it:

That's impressive.
How's this relate to Python? Chicagocrime.org is built with Django. :)
Makes me curious if Eugene has a crime database.
