This document provides instructions for using IFTTT (If This Then That), a platform for creating recipes that connect different internet services. It explains how to sign up for an account, explore available channels and recipes, create your own recipes to connect triggers and actions between channels like Facebook, Dropbox, and Google Drive, and search for recipes related to specific channels. The goal is to walk through setting up several example recipes to save Facebook profile changes to Dropbox, sync files between Dropbox and Google Drive, and save Facebook posts to Evernote.
