If this then that

If this then that puts the internet to work for you. The free service allows users to set up a number of ‘recipes’ that fit the structure: if this happens, then do that. For instance, if rain is in the forecast, then send a text notification or if there’s a new post on Craigslist for a certain item, then send an email. Simple utility.

Circle of Trust

This project from Brazilian company D3 uses the new Google+ API to visualize the closeness of your circles on Google+. Curious how many people in your circles looped you into theirs as well? About how many people only you’ve circled, or who the lurkers on the outside are who’ve only circled you?

Give it a try here: http://www.d3.do/labs/circleoftrust/index.php

Aside from providing a new tool for social network investigation, the Circle of Trust visuals are beautiful and it’s exciting to see what the first experiments manipulating Google+ API yield.
