yahoo pipes

i couldn't not blog abt this... :) It is such an amazing li'l thing, 'n more surprising thing is that it is from yahoo camp! Well anyone wo knows me, knows that i am a bonafide Google girl...'n have a real low opinion abt yahoo...but when i came across this 'pipes' from yahoo, my view points took a serious damage.

"Yahoo!'s new Pipes service is a milestone in the history of the internet. It's a service that generalizes the idea of the mashup, providing a drag and drop editor that allows you to connect internet data sources, process them, and redirect the output." You can read the entire article here.

'n a friend of mine in yahoo, forwarded me this link. Yahoo! Our City looks like another good service. Google can't take it easy anymore, lest it becomes like the story of 'The Hare & The Tortoise'.

Bureaucracy

AllFreeCalls, a new service which lets people make free phone calls by first calling a phone number in Iowa and then calling to any of dozens of other countries, just added eight new countries to the permitted lists (plus Antarctica). In an email the founder also said that they handled 80,000 call minutes yesterday.The company operates under a legislative loophole that gives rural telco’s a kickback on every received call. That kickback is greater than the cost the company bears for making outbound international calls. So someone’s paying for these calls (other telecos? taxpayers?), just not the person using the service. I love bureaucracy.

AllFreeCalls (un)Surprisingly Successful

    Interesting... wonder how many such loopholes exist in India... :)
