Richard MacManus http://www.readwriteweb.com - Is that a pipe in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?; as expected, geeks (myself included) are drooling over Yahoo Pipes, the new RSS Remix service. Indeed the demand has caused some outages. I particularly recommend the following coverage: O'Reilly Radar (although "milestone in the history of the internet" is possibly overstating it), Dave Winer ("Pipes users are likely to be fairly technical scripting-level users"), Anil Dash ("Yahoo has stepped up to provide an essential platform in a way that seems open and approachable"), Nik Cubrilovic ("The fact that they include Google Base as a default source in Pipes shows that the web is much more about interoperability than the desktop ever was or ever will be") and Jeremy Zawodny, who has more Pipes links than you can shake a pipe at.

- Windows Live Hotmail Announced; Microsoft has decided to keep the "Hotmail" brand in the name of their Windows Live Mail service. Also check out this comparison of web mail services over at Techcrunch, where they say that Windows Live Hotmail isn't as good as Gmail or Yahoo Mail.

- Microsoft to unveil Windows Mobile 6; in actual product news, Microsoft is set to unveil Windows Mobile 6, the latest iteration of their mobile OS, at the 3GSM trade show in Barcelona. New phones using the OS are expected in second half of this year.

- Baidu Launches Video Search; China's biggest search engine releases video search, possibly in response to a couple of their local competitors.

- IBM releases QEDWiki; described as an "Enterprise Mashup Maker", this app lets users access IBM's mashup maker to answer real-life business needs. There's also a YouTube video demonstrating it. Pretty hard core geeky, but great to see IBM exploring 'web 2.0' technologies more nowadays.
