The document discusses the concept of internet pipelines and several existing pipeline tools and services. Pipelines allow combining multiple online sources and applying transformations to the data. Some examples mentioned include Unix and XML pipelines, Apache Cocoon, Yahoo Pipes, Touchstone, Blogwave, and Blip.tv. The document also discusses possibilities for improving existing pipeline tools by combining features and expanding the types of sources that can be used.

- 11. my pipelines Pipelines are useful, but are limited by our own creativity at the moment. But wait... there's another way Please bear with me...
- 15. Using blip.tv instead of flickr Flickr is good but Blip.tv is even better Even Lawrence Lessig says so http://www.lessig.org/blog/archives/003570.shtml
- 18. When blip.tv met hey!watch
- 21. Cool stuff, but what about Y! “ RSS and XML are easy targets for a beta service. But whats really needed is more input adapters. Microformats, FOAF, S5, WebAPIs, XMPP, etc. The transformers are predictable bar the user-defined filters (which I would assume would be XSL?). There's other services like RSS Mix and Feed Rinse which do the same thing. Chris is right, filters are old hat.” http://www.cubicgarden.com/blojsom/blog/pipelines/Environment/2007/02/08/Yahoo-catches-on-to-the-idea-of-internet-pipelines.html
- 24. Clients and servers Touchstone is simply cool but can use a lot of resources Blogwave relies on dos for its real shifting Maybe there's ways to combine these?
- 28. But Y! Could do almost the same
