I agree with you that IFTTT and Zapier are simpler solutions to more common needs, but man, Pipes is really powerful. It's more like a language than an automation framework. I don't know if it will ever make any money, but it's a hell of service.
- teaneedz 14y agoLong before IFTTT, Pipes was an excellent solution for various social media needs. I recall mashing up RSS feeds and using it to bypass various platform throttles. It was awesome for fixing wonky feeds. Love the UNIX metaphore and interface. Pipes was the only Yahoo! product that really sang to me. I think I've been relying on IFTTT too much lately. I may have to revisit Pipes.
