Cool tool... ifttt




I am crazy about ifttt (If This, Then That), a cool new tool shared with me by my tech pal, David Ashby.

This great tool allows you to set up automated "if, then" tasks using Twitter, Facebook, text, email, Diigo, and scores of other services you already use every day. [Note to the folks at ifttt if you're out there: How about Blogger?]

You can set up replies when someone follows you on Twitter, have favorite Tweets emailed to you, and send your RSS feeds to Diigo, to name a few of thousands of possibilities.

Recipes are ifttt tasks that you can make to share with others, and hundreds of recipes are posted for your use on the ifttt site.

Here's a demo video of how ifft works.

For more ideas and tools from David, check out his blog, Tech Tools for Schools.
