Sunday Salon: Annoyance
I'm seriously disgusted with Yahoo Pipes. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't--you'll have noticed that it's not working today--even when I've made no changes. I don't understand it well enough to effectively troubleshoot. I'm trying to figure out if there's some other means of aggregating the Sunday Salon feeds. It's not as easy as you'd think: there are almost 500 RSS feeds we want aggregated, filtered, sorted, with dates appended to the titles, and spat out. I've wasted hours on this today and so far have not come up with anything like a solution.

I'm giving up for now. It looks like Yahoo Pipes has been having problems (http://is.gd/4Qv9mP). I don't know if that's what's happening with my Pipe or not but for now I'm going to assume as much. Certainly nothing was changed on my end to make the thing suddenly stop working.

Agreed. Both Yahoo pipes I know of that feed into friend feed have stopped working ages ago (one is sunday salon).

The problem seems to be widespread, though I don't understand the particulars. This is good, since it's not us, but then again it doesn't help us any either.

This post arrived in my feed reader as a TSS post on 11/12, 9:14pm US EST. But at least it appears the posts are beginning to flow. Fingers crossed for this Sunday!
