Yo guys, I don't know how many of you have ever tried IFTTT before...but it's legit.
Basically it allows you to make the internet work for you. You create recipes based on a IF (fill in the blank) THEN (fill in the blank) formula. So say you could say IF I upload a YouTube video THEN post it to my blog. Get it? Good.
Now we can use this to our advantage:
I just made a recipe that will text me whenever there is a free motorcycle posted on craigslist, and I just got a text for one that will be at a garage sale tomorrow morning! WOOT, I'm going to go check it out and see if it's any good

If you go to their site and connect your phone you'll be able to use it. I made it so that it only will text me if there is a post with the words "free motorcycle" next to each other, so there are flaws. If you want, do one without the quotations, but then you might get a bunch of texts for posts that have free and motorcycle somewhere in them. Like 20,000 Motorcycle with a free used helmet or something like that haha. You could have it post to your facebook, or email you or even call you with an automated message. There's some sweet recipe ideas on there so make sure to browse around a bit!
Let me know what you think! If you make any other sweet recipes feel free to post em up!
