Some fantastic recipes here. Since Twitter triggers were removed from IFTTT in September last year I have been using RSS feeds as a work around. Unfortunately, Twitter retired RSS feeds a few weeks back- so I was looking for another work around. I decided to build an app myself. It is called Twools and it’s a free app you install on your website. It gives you a lot more RSS feeds that Twitter gave of your data and has some powerful filters. It in effect gives you the possibility of even more powerful IFTTT recipes. I’ve written an article about it here- http://iag.me/socialmedia/tools/introducing-twools-your-twitter-rss-feeds-unleashed/
Let me know what you think.

I’ve just been recommended IFTTT and although it took a little getting used to, it is an amazing time saver if used to the best of its ability. Thanks for the explanation and tips above, really useful.

I saw your disclaimer at the top RE: Ifttt and Twitter and thought my latest blog post would be of interest.

There are some RSS feed workarounds to get Twitter working if Ifttt still. Okay, it’s not possible to do some things now like follower grouping anymore, but for alerts (my main use for Ifttt) and cross-posting it works.
