I recall Lifehacker posting a thurrough article about IFTTT a few months back. You could check out their archives to read up about it too. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Matzura Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 3:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: IFTTT, what is it and how does it work?
IFTTT stands for "if this, then that." It's a way to cause certain things to happen online based on a starter action. For instance, you can use IFTTT to automatically upload a picture to Facebook taken with the front-facing camera, which will also automatically cause a Foursquare check-in and a Twitter update. These actions are controlled by objects called "recipes". Remember, IFTTT doesn't do anything for you; rather, you do things to it, and in turn, it does other things based on the recipe of actions you design. How this all works from an iPhone, and how accessible it is, I haven't a clue. Read more about it, and it's not that much to be read, at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IFTTT On Mon, 15 Jul 2013 16:38:53 -0500, you wrote: >Hi all, >The subject pretty much says it all. >I created an account with this service and have the app on my phone, but can someone explain to me what it is and how it works. >Can it be used to receive things like statuses from facebook and twitter? > >Blessings, >Stacey and Gemini >mailto:[email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
