Yahoo's Pipes Service
In an earlier post, I described how I use Yahoo's news reader to aggregate news feeds that I want to check at least daily.I am now beginning to investigate whether Pipes, a new service Yahoo is testing, can enhance how I use RSS feeds. As defined by Yahoo,
Pipes is a free online service that lets you remix popular feed types and create data mashups and share your own web services ...You can see some examples here. One I particularly like, because I'm always looking for images related to news I read, was created by Daniel Raffel. It "takes the New York Times homepage, passes it thru Content Analysis [one of Pipes' pre-configured modules] and uses the keywords to find Photos at Flickr."
