Huginn - "Huginn is a system for building agents that perform automated tasks for you online. They can read the web, watch for events, and take actions on your behalf.

You do."

Tasker
Android and Beeminder and Tasker #article - "Tasker is like IFTTT for your Android. It exposes triggers and events that you can string together kind of like a recipe. It lets you plug in Beeminder as the event portion of a recipe, and so you can do things like automatically mind your sleep based on how long your phone’s display is off at night, or start a timer every time you launch Candy Crush Saga, and stop and submit the datapoint every time you quit the app. "
Android intents in Tasker #article - "In my recent post about run shell actions in Tasker I listed over 40 different shell commands to help you toggle settings on your Android device. There is one more way of forcing specific actions, especially within different applications. Android intents in Tasker are another way to communicate with applications by passing a command, that often consist an action and parameters to complete this action."

This part will be dedicated to various tips and tricks for using Tasker, things that aren’t as obvious as they perhaps should be. I’ve tried to think of as many as I can, but there might be a second tips and tricks in the future if I think of more."

Tasker: Having fun with Tasker Post-It notes #article - "I love creating little projects that aren’t solving any problems but work well as great tutorials.
