Organize your life across digital platforms with IFTT. This free online service that lets you connect phones and tablets, apps, and services and set up "if this, then that" recipes that trigger a wide variety of possible results, from waking you up early if it's snowing to sending you an email if you're tagged in an Instagram photo.

Charles G. Hollins shows you how to set up IFTT's triggers, actions, and ingredients, and how to create new and customize existing IFTTT recipes. In this course, you'll explore IFTTT recipes like getting notified if your favorite stock drops, creating notes in your favorite cloud storage app, automating tweets, and even receiving a text message when a motion sensor is triggered at your home.
