If one idea of blogging is transmitting ideas, then I think these pipes are a good idea. Seems to me like a blogroll on steriods.

I borrowed Nick's EWCA Crim pipe to knock up ones for the Civil appeals and Admin court lists, which I'm running on Nearly Legal but it looks like Nick has done his own more refined versions. These pipes are basically just a filter on Bailii's recent decisions RSS feed. Nick's family law pipe is an aggregation of 14 family law blogs and news, using their RSS feeds. Subject based aggregation is a very useful thing, I think - 14 sites in one handy self-updating package that can itself be used for all sorts of things. Fun in a geeky kind of way.
