With a rapidly growing pool of applications and services available, the World Wide Web has become the single largest source of information. Yet the lack of structure and semantic annotation of individual data items within the Web poses a severe restriction on its usefulness to the end user. Web mashups and other service-oriented software try to remedy this dilemma in a pragmatic way by consolidating related data from different sources, yet their creation requires expertise on the user-side. We present a system that allows novice users to create data consolidation applications through interaction. Isolated tasks are performed as Web services. A simple and flexible Web service workflow language is defined that composes the isolated tasks into a workflow which models the user's interactions. As all this is done encapsulated away from the user, the user effort is kept minimal.
