Pipes: A Tool For Remixing the Web

                 

Good presentation about Yahoo Pipes by the Pipes Team -- speaking at Google no less. Talks about new features and future features. Below is the blurb about the video: Google Tech Talks April 2, 2007 ABSTRACT Pipes is a service platform for processing well-structured data such as RSS, Atom and RDF feeds in a Web-based visual programming environment. Developers can use Pipes to combine data sources and user input into mashups without having to write code. These mashups, analogous in some ways to Unix pipes, can power badges on personal publishing sites, provide core functionality for Web applications, or serve as reusable components within the Pipes platform itself. Here's what Tim O'Reilly says about pipes: "Yahoo!'s new Pipes service is a milestone in the history of the internet. It's a service that generalizes the idea of the mashup, providing a drag and drop editor that allows you to connect internet data sources, process them, and redirect the output."
