We have created a simple online event ticketing process flow and replaced a few components of the flow with mashup APIs to show the viability of re-using such functions with mashup APIs. First, we integrated with PayPal to provide payment processing for the ticket that was bought. Next we used Google Calendar and added a new event into the customer's primary calendar. Finally we sent the ticket as an SMS to the customer.
