pipe.py

class do(object):
    def __init__(self, fn, *args, **kwargs):
        self.fn = fn
        self.args = args
        self.kwargs = kwargs

    def __rrshift__(self, other):
        return self.fn(other, *self.args, **self.kwargs)

42 >> do(print)

I picked do because it's short but other names like into or pipe might make sense. You could decorate the functions as well to negate the need for this form as well, but I don't know how much magic you actually want. I'm happy to extend it if you want to see an example of this in action.
