Pipes is a service platform for processing well-structured data such as RSS, Atom, and RDF feeds in a web-based visual programming environment. Developers can use Pipes to combine data sources and user input into mashups without having to write code.

Web2.0 applications, such as Flickr, del.icio.us and Upcoming.org are getting more popular among web applications today. They often expose APIs that allow developers to build mashups, which combine various Web service for a greater good! These Web services not only return XML, but also support formats such as RSS, JSON and serialized PHP. In this talk, Dan Theurer will discuss the different formats, sources, and technologies and show how open source content management systems can take advantage of it.

Performance and security has been on my mind a lot lately, so that is going to be the focus of this talk. You can't speed up your application unless you know why and where it is slow, so I'll review a couple of profiling tools, Valgrind+Callgrind and XDebug.
