+IFTTT Connector
+===============
+
+The purpose of this connector is to use [IFTTT](http://www.ifttt.com) 
+to mirror posts from remote networks like Facebook.
+
+IFTTT (IF This Then That) is a service that triggers commands on 
+definable conditions.
+
+Its main purpose is to mirror your own posts from Facebook as if they 
+would have been posted directly on Friendica but it should be possible 
+to mirror posts from other networks as well.
+
+Every time when IFTTT detects that there is a new post on the remote 
+network, it triggers an HTTP POST call on the Friendica server that 
+creates a post from the connected account.
+
+By now there is a posting loop detection for Facebook but not for any 
+other network. So please be careful to not mirror from networks where 
+you post your items via Friendica.
