Getting into ‘if this then that’

Posted by on in Stuff, Tech

If you don’t know ‘if this then that’ then you should. It’s an amazing way to automate services on the internet.  For example, you might want certain items matching a specific search criteria from an RSS feed to always end up in your ReadItLater items. No problem. You can automate that using ITTT (if this then that) and it will check the feed every 15 minutes and drop items straight into RIL for you.

ITTT can connect to a whole host of services that are brilliant when put together. I’m only just starting to get into it at the moment, but I can see it being really useful. You can try it out here.

2011 ended with a real smash!

Sadly it was the screen of my iPad 2 that was smashed! Not a great way to end the year, but on the up side it means I have an excellent excuse to buy an iPad 3 when they come out this year!
