A blast from the past …

Using Yahoo! Pipes

Note: This pipe was modified and this screencast was recorded to show how to truncate each RSS feed to only 5 items, use the Union Module to merge up to 5 separate sources into a single list of items, sort them by title, and use the Unique Module to remove duplicate items. This screencast was embedded in another video for the Internet Librarian 2009 conference.

IFTTT 101• IFTTT (pronounced like “gift”) is an abbreviation for "If This Then That“

• Recipes are simple connections between products and apps.• DO Recipes run with just a tap and enable you to create your own personalized

Button, Camera, and Notepad.

• IF Recipes run automatically in the background. Create powerful connections with one simple statement — if this then that.

• Channels are the basic building blocks of Recipes. Each Channel has its own Triggers and Actions.

• The if part of an IF Recipe is a Trigger.

• The then part of an IF Recipe is an Action.

• Pieces of data from a Trigger are called Ingredients.
