I intend to explore Yahoo Pipes some more. You can filter on keywords, combine feeds, translate, use localization (mapping) modules, sort input, take user input, and do string manipulation.
If you have ideas for interesting mashups involving bicycles or if you've created your own pipes, please feel free to comment and post your links here.
Update: Here are some more pipes I've created --
- L'Equipe cycling news RSS feed translated from French to English. L'Equipe only provides a partial feed with links back to the French-language article, but I'm working on a way to re-write the links so it passes through a translator first. Non-RSS web page here.
- Cyclelicious in German - as an RSS feed or as a web page. The RSS feed contains the complete translated text, while the web site shows only a portion of each article.
- Cyclelicious in Japanese - RSS and web page.
- Rad Spannerei German bicycle blog translated to English (and the RSS feed of the translation).
- I also have an English translation of several Japanese bicycle blogs, but the translation module doesn't seem to work for Nihongo.
Cool. I read about this the other day and considered some of the possibilities, but this seem like a nice practical application. I'll have to fool around a bit myself. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletehttp://jokesbyjim.blogspot.com/2006_03_12_archive.html has an interesting take on th "bicycle is a pipe bomb" story, though if it really *is* a punk band I"m surprised it doesn't have *something* else on the web. That's really underground!!!
ReplyDeleteCool, Rad Spannerei in English. I just added it to my feeds.
