Wk 5-Pipes

Pipes seems very intricate to me.  I viewed the video on how to create a feed, but it just seems that it is very extensive and would be most effective for folks that spend a lot of time following a specific trend or interest on several websites continually.  I really don't spend that much time following a specific sport or trend online so for me, building such an extensive feed wouldn't be necessary.  If I am interested in a hobby,  I may just check one specific web page once in a while pertaining to that interest.  I do see the need for such a feed if you were a sports agent or a stock broker perhaps,  a merging site of this sort would be a tremendous asset to have an all trajectories that spike your curiosity in one place where everything that you are following online connects.  Pipes works like a large tree of information that is anchored in one solo place, like a bookmarker for feeds, definitely a very neat idea.

  1. Pipes can be somewhat technical. I think it will appeal more to some folks than others.
