Show HN: Like Yahoo Pipes, but works

I'm getting a lot of 'permission denied' alerts trying to do anything. Even if that's the case, typically apps try to volley that into a 'Sign up now!' instead of the negative.

Probably a good idea to make sure your app works before you bash Yahoo Pipes. Just my $0.02. :)

Your intro text runs off my screen (1360x768 laptop, not a really unusual resolution), and scrolling zooms stuff in and out in the background.

I don't think I have as much screen real estate as this was designed for, and I don't tend to browse in full-screen mode. You should consider letting people use scrollbars. I can't even read the entire splash message.

Maybe it works, but I don't know what to do...<p>That is a solid ton of text, which I read, and I'm still not sure.<p>I was kinda hoping to see "here's a feed with the top stocks and what twitter is saying about them" but instead I saw yellow boxes and permission denied.

Maybe you should make a TL;DR how it works; I have not ran into much applications in my life I couldn't do <i>anything</i> with without rtfm.

I didn't know Pipes didn't work? I thought it was just basically way too complicated for almost anyone besides a programmer?

I like the boxes but it desperately needs immediately visible results.

Making a short video should be essential for something like this.

Looks very interesting, but way too much to read.

doesn't work?

I see what you did there. You made fun of a company that's in the slumps to promote your own little product. Too bad Yahoo Pipes works, and your product does not.<p>So should we say that Yahoo Pipes is like cerrio, but works?
