Tarpipe, Learning by Example

Here’s a quick video I put together to show you what Tarpipe does. If a picture is worth 1000 words, a video must be worth millions. This example shows an email being sent out with an image attached to the email. The email produces a new picture posted to Flickr, and the link for the [...]
