For the Flow aficionados amongst you, check out the Flow online conference videos on YouTube.
I've referred to the golden age of web 2.0 in Yahoo! in a previous post. One of the cool products of that time was Yahoo! Pipes that provided effectively pipework for RSS feeds.
With similar applications in mind, Microsoft flow can be a worthy replacement. I needed to only retrieve the web page linked from an RSS feed if the title contains a particular keyword. See the screenshot below. The flow web editor does not allow for dragging and dropping an action into the alternative paths following the conditional. I guess this will be a possibility when editing Flows in Visio becomes available. This might look like a peculiar combination to those of us who think of Visio as a tool for drawing diagrams, but Visio already has Sharepoint workflow functionality, and Microsoft Flow is to replace Sharepoint workflows as you'll hear in the conference videos.
