Information Aesthetics has the scoop on a new website called “DataMasher”.

DataMasher [datamasher.org] helps citizens creating mashups of data pulled from data.gov to visualize them in different ways, and to analyze how states compare on important issues. Users can combine different data sets in several ways and create their own custom rankings and color-coded maps of the US states.

DataMaster is one of the 3 finalists in the Apps for America 2 Contest, designed to find new and interesting visualizations and tools for the ever-growing data.gov site.
