Sorry, Raganwald

There's this Canadian fellow that works for Ben's company, who writes a really wonderful weblog (well. . . it's wonderful if you're interested in things like "Structured Programming" or want to read about how learning FORTH will change your life. Which I am, but you maybe not so much).

In any case, he recently had a poll up about whether or not he should keep putting his daily link summaries into his blog, saying that he doesn't intend to start generating multiple feeds, one for links and one for his own writing. Doing that sort of stuff can probably be very annoying, if you're not writing your own blogging software (come to think of it, it's just as annoying if you do write your own blogging software. . .).

I've wanted to try Yahoo Pipes for a while, and this seemed like a good candidate. So I generated two really simple pipes for his blog, one just the links, and one just his posts.

Ragenwald - Links Only

Ragenwald - No Links

This was really simple to do with Pipes. Makes me want to generate some Pipes that do something more complex. Psyched it supports regular expressions.
