Wow, that's one hell of a side project. Looks really awesome.

Do you have plans on having a hosted version people can use?

I love the idea of hosted open source projects which allow you to easily export your data if you decide later to run it yourself.

Thanks! I'd like to make a version that's trivial to deploy to Heroku, or perhaps a pre-build micro EC2 image? I'm not sure I want to host more than a demo version because it could be used for scraping. The core idea is that this is something that you run yourself because you care about who has your data.

This is a great project and will surely help a few people down the road starting their own clone of IFTTT :)

Awesome. Great work. Looking forward to digging in.
