I (and probably sriramk too) am disappointed the article didn't mention Microsoft Popfly: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Popfly

Popfly was a more consumer centric mash up tool built by a little skunk works team inside of Microsoft's Developer Division.



Never heard of it. Because it is silverlight, never would have been able to run it. Sounds like it did a lot less according to http://blog.jonudell.net/2008/02/14/popfly-and-pipes/

Lemme guess, you worked on it?


Of course! No other reason to mention a Microsoft project that's been dead for four years otherwise :)


Hah. Well, you shipped something. I have to imagine that's incredibly hard.
