New Mexico Stories is a visitor-contributed Yahoo! map-based Flickr mashup.  Ideum developed the site with the Museum of New Mexico Foundation. The Foundation is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to the four museums and six historical state monuments that comprise the Museum of New Mexico.

This mashup site is open to visitor-contributions and the photographs are drawn from a Flickr group administered by the Foundation. New Mexico Stories presents a state view but also allows visitors to jump to specific counties across New Mexico.  In addition, a "gallery view" was created which presents a random collage of 50 photographs found in the group. Ideum developed the site using Adobe Flash.
