  Tech Be Nimble

The Internet of Everything

2/20/2015

Ever heard of the Internet of Things? It's the idea that, more and more, everyday objects are becoming "smart" objects, capable of connecting to a network. A popular example is the Nest thermostat that lets you control your house's climate from your smartphone. Wouldn't it be great if you could organize all your Internet-connected things? And make them do stuff for you? Without having to constantly check/fidget/run another search for how to do that?

I've been a fan of IFTTT for a while now and I know I am way under-utilizing its capabilities. If you haven't checked out this automation tool, I urge you to play around with it and see how it can streamline a lot of your multi-step Internet-connected tasks. Exciting news for fans of IFTTT, it looks like the company has solid plans to be around for a while: http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/19/technology/ifttt-buttons/index.html?iid=SF_T_River
