Yahoo Pipes - A new spin on RSS

Today I watched the introduction to the Yahoo Pipes Beta at http://www.jumpcut.com/fullscreen?id=F4396574585311DC87A2000423CF0184&type=clip. It’s a little like Biztalk for RSS with a focus on a user rather than a machine process. You can take data from multiple sources, mangle/transform, and plop it back out again for general consumption via RSS. Quite interesting, in fact it gets me thinking about some other similar ideas…
