Pipes. This product provided much of the conceptual framework that became essential to come up with YQL. It was also very important because the real-world experience with users ended up exposing the need for a more advanced approach to the &ldquo;Unix pipes for the web&rdquo; initiative.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Update (2015-06-11): <a href=\"http:\/\/taoofmac.com\/space\/links\/2015\/06\/05\/1055\">Rui Carmo<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote cite=\"http:\/\/taoofmac.com\/space\/links\/2015\/06\/05\/1055\"><p>In case you&rsquo;re looking for a partial replacement, <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ggaughan\/pipe2py\/\">pipe2py<\/a> works for a couple of my simple pipes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/scripting.com\/2015\/06\/07\/whatChangesAtMediumAndYahooPipesTeachUsAboutThePersistenceOfTheWeb.html\">Dave Winer<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote cite=\"http:\/\/scripting.com\/2015\/06\/07\/whatChangesAtMediumAndYahooPipesTeachUsAboutThePersistenceOfTheWeb.html\">I wondered what will happen to the people who follow feeds produced by Yahoo Pipes? Yahoo doesn&rsquo;t say they&rsquo;ll provide free <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/URL_redirection#HTTP_status_codes_3xx\">redirection<\/a>, but it would be good for the web if they did. However, even if they did provide redirection, where would people redirect to? Because Yahoo was a big company people trusted and their service was free, little if any competition developed for Yahoo Pipes. Either way, it&rsquo;s a clear example of why it&rsquo;s not good to depend on free commercial services to form critical parts of your content infrastructure.<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yahoo: Pipes creation will not be supported as of Aug. 30 this year.
