IFTTT

The application I found interesting is IFTTT. Stands for If This Then That which is really neat cross platform tool to use. This is a app that allows you to start a command for one app and control another app. For example I wanted to share my Apple calendar to my Google calendar. Which works well now when I book a appointment on the Apple calendar it will appear in Google calendar. This is a great way for me not to have to choose which calendar to use. Due to writing this I'm going to set up a command for Blogger to Twitter. So follow me there @kriscamware. This application is full of popular services that can be used. I recommend this application for anyone looking to be free from logging in to one service at a time to get a task done. Since finding this I will have a more simplistic workflow.

I used to use WordPress and a couple things to note compared to Blogger. First note is I don't see a mobile application for Blogger. When I used WordPress I wrote this on the blog: This blog post is written on my phone. This is a great example of a site that built for many ways to consume or put out content. I enjoy the mobile application since I can do the same things I would do on a desktop. I recommend WordPress to everyone it is free and easy to use. I closed the app and the work was saved to a draft. Nice touch for WordPress. Now using Blogger I enjoy the functionally just as much. Although if you need to blog on the go WordPress may be your choice. Personally I use Google Docs on my mobile and copy my mobile blog ideas like now and paste them into a post. That is my work around since I do get blog idesa like this on the go. Personally some of the problems I had with WordPress was the pages. I'd set up a page and it wouldn't appear on the blog. For example a About Me

MyMail is a iOS and Android application. It is a nice mail app that allows you to get email from all your accounts. It's not a desktop app although it great for mail on the go. I have tried the stock mail apps and they just don't compare to this app. It is user friendly you can easily import all your contacts. Plus with this app you can choose when you want to receive your notifications. You can turn off notifications for certain folders, domains, and contacts. This app allows you to hide the sender or subject from popping up on notification screen. This is a feature that I haven't seen in other stock mail apps.
