Yahoo! Pipes

pipes_-editing-_pownce-feed_.jpgI created my first Yahoo! Pipe and I’m impressed with how easy it was. My first pipe involves manipulating my Pownce feed with a few regex expressions to include the post link and the comment count in the description of the item. And most noticeably I’ve taken out the “DANCAMERON:” from the title.

The reasoning: I’m using feedwordpress to pull my pownce messages to create posts on this blog. This is so my RSS readers can go straight to a post with the ability to comment rather than force them to Pownce where they’d have to sign-up to comment. For my regular readers that don’t use RSS you can just go here.

If you check out my pipe know that I still have a lot of work left. I first want to make it work with the atom feed straight from pownce, I went the simple route and used the feed from feedburner since it was converted to RSS2 already. More important then that I want to get the link within my pownce messaged to show on the post (Pownce allows for “link” messages as well as standard messages) then I want to create a published app so anyone can use it.

Update:

I’ve gone ahead and published it and the new link is here. Now anyone can use it to sanitize the atom feed and I’ll be adding more later.

“Relationships owned by individual”

“My theory on how this should be accomplished is based on a marriage of OpenID and an open standard for defining relationships such as the XFN Microformat. I see it manifesting as the evolution of the address book, one that is designed with a focus on relationship management, privacy, and integration with other web services.”
