Re: [m2m-iwg] IFTTT: The San Francisco Startup Lets Anyone Control The Internet of Things

Hi, Nicholas. They're receptive, just probably overwhelmed with requests for all of the different apps that could be integrated. Let's coordinate efforts and I'm sure we can make something happen. We were heading down the same path with using an intermediary for messaging, but it just felt "dirty".

I have a local proof of concept of bridging IFTTT to MQTT via their XMPP/Google Chat channel. It works to an extent, but is very hacky.
I contacted them, a few weeks ago, via their Platform page
(https://ifttt.com/platform) to point them towards MQTT although I've not had a response. It is fair to say that most of their channels are at the application level, rather than transports - so I could see why it might not be an immediate obvious fit to them.
Most of my personal use cases for IFTTT were lost last week when they had to bow to Twitter's curious API changes.
