simplehelp.net — Yahoo describes Pipes as “an interactive data aggregator and manipulator that lets you mashup your favorite online data sources”. But what does that mean to the rest of us? This tutorial will take you through the steps to filter the content of one RSS feed (Techmeme) so that content you may have already read isn’t included in your Techmeme feed.

When did Ted Stevens join Yahoo?

The only way to prevent that from happening is to periodically clean them out with race horses and powerballs.

I seriously was not interested in the story, but I knew I just HAD to come see how many Senator Stevens jokes i'd find.

I'm not sure what market they are trying to hit with pipes...A programmer would hack together a script to do thisA non-programmer wouldn't be drawn to this or know why they would want it. (Hint: How many "pipes" is your mom planning on making?)Those in between would either use an already created tool or use an online service that already does this...Unless they make this much cooler so that programmers adopt it rather than rolling their own solution, it seems like a solution looking for a problem.I'm calling this a DNTBI (Didn't Need To Be Invented).

Am I the only one who at first glance thought Yahoo was getting into marijuana paraphernalia?
