Microsoft Popfly to hit public beta soon
section: microsoft, for your questions: KezNews forum, 6.8.2007
Microsoft’s Popfly mashup tool sounds just about ready to hit public beta. Microsoft rolled out an alpha test version of its Popfly Web-mashup tool in May — a few months after Yahoo rolled out its own mashup editor, Yahoo Pipes.
Google launched a test version of its Google Mashup Editor in May, too.
Popfly could become one of Microsoft’s next ad-supported services. (Microsoft officials said this week that the company is working on a pilot of an ad-funded version of Microsoft Works, its low-end productivity suite. And it sounds like the Softies have more ad-funded services in the works, no pun intended.)
Popfly has been faring well in comparison tests against its competitors. Still no word yet on when Popfly will go “gold.”
