Yahoo just blew my mind... with Pipes.

This web app applies the Quartz Composer UI gestalt to the problem of combining feeds and filters usefully. The initial data sources include Yahoo Search, flickr photos, RSS URLs, and even Google Base.

In a couple of minutes, I was able to pipe articles from We Make Money Not Art and Machine Project rss feeds to a replace function, generating a vaguely random we make flickr photo feed.

I also made a very foolish way to seek alpha through flickr.
