Yahoo! Pipes: “What Is Pipes? Pipes is a hosted service that lets you remix feeds and create new data mashups in a visual programming environment. The name of the service pays tribute to Unix pipes, which let programmers do astonishingly clever things by making it easy to chain simple utilities together on the command line.”
Nial Kennedy: “Yahoo! released Yahoo! Pipes tonight, a visual editing interface for web feed manipulation and reconstruction.”
Tim O’Reilly: “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.”
Anil Dash: “Is Pipes going to be a success? In many ways it already is.”
