Gather information together using Yahoo Pipes

Recently, -indeed, almost one month ago- I have been looking for a service that can mix all of my blogs' feeds together so that readers can only subscribe to it and no need to worry about missing a post on one of them.
After, trying several disappointed services, I came across the Yahoo Pipes. Indeed, it is such a good service that it can be very useful for you. By using this tool, you can gather, filter and sort any information on the web.
Well, here in my IT blog I discuss how i used it to combine the blog posts that I write in several blog sites. I think you should give it a try.

How much would you pay before marrying an investment banker?

Recently, I read an interesting article in which a divorce lawyer named Jeremy Levison warns the bankers that "Don't get married. If you must, make sure your other half is as rich as you."

As provocative as it sounds, the articles then looks at the underlying claims that make this warning a legitimite one. One of the cleverest guys in pricing complex securities makes an analysis of the situation and he concludes that "you might expect to see $187,500 to $375,000 being invested toward getting a junior banker to the altar".

Of course, this is for those of people who works in Wall Street or London. Maybe the situation in Turkey might be more different but here I want to address Turkish girls that it might be a good investments for you to find a guy who wants to work as a investment bankers or traders.
