The title sounds like a negative, like Zapier adjusted their service and all of a sudden Ducksboard had a lot more work to do.

Maybe "How Zapier allowed us to support a hundred new services in half an hour"?

Ah, the ambiguities of the English tongue and the unaware non-native speakers that get ensnared by them!

Anyway, I hope the intended meaning gets through and it was also a case of "shit, people, we need to be on this thing!". So they made us support new services as gas makes a car run, and they also made us do it as a madman makes Sandra Bullock go over 50 mph.
