Remixing the Web with Yahoo! Pipes

Hi All,

I’m pleased to say that we’ve got an early beta of Pipes available today. This is a tool for developers to remix data on the web and we are hoping that you find it useful. Please bear in mind that the initial version is here for feedback, so don’t hesitate to use the links on the site. I’m really looking forward to where this service will lead.
Tim has been kind enough to write about our service better than I could and the same goes for Jeremy.

As for me, my favorite pipe is European Performance Car News. When Pasha Sadri first told me about his idea, I immediately wanted to have this pipe. It pulls automotive news from my favorite sites (Autoblog, Fourtitude, and Jalopnik) and filters them for the makes that I’m interested in. It’s a simple pipe, but it’s an example of how you can use pipes to quickly scratch an itch you’ve been having.
