Adding IFTTT to SteemIt
IFTTT (If this then that) is popular service that connects many internet applications. Currently, steemit doesn't have a 'service on IFTTT.
What can the users do if there is a IFTTT channel? The imagination is unlimited. For example, we can:
- Get comments via phone messages
- Synchronize posts via RSS feed to your blog or vice versa.
- Say thanks to somebody via Wallet when you are delegated SP.
- Upvoting or downvoting when a certain condition is met.
- Comment on your friends on their birthday.
- etc, etc.
As the IFTTT has two parts: This and That. This is the trigger part, so Steemit needs to provide a list of APIs that could be easily notified i.e. events that are triggered. That is the action, for example, Post/Comment on steem blockchain, upvoting/downvoting, sending SBD via wallet etc.
I believe this is the game changer for Steemit if steemit wants to play a bigger role in the social network, blockchain or whatever. With IFTTT/Steem, there is a great potential and there are so many interesting stuffs we can connect Steemit to the other internet applications.

Can you do it? Adding it to IFTTT rather than via other channels?
I can't do it.. but this is a good idea.
Agree. Good idea but I thought you "did" it ;-)
This is a big project ...
A brilliant idea!
it sounds like a line of a code :D but then again I love lines of code :)
So, not only for steemit, any UI of steem can do it, or just use a dedicated website to do, correct?
you are right.
Great idea! Hope someone will be able to implement it.
Thanks. Accepted in Utopian.

Thank you.
The idea of including the steemit API in IFTTT is excellent.
It would help the expansion of steemit.
It is a business opportunity for developers.
