SoundAct: Similar to IFTTT but that triggers with sound. You can record sound patterns such as a double clap, clap, footstep, etc and associate that with an action, like notifying someone or reading the news. Ideal for context where siri-like apps does not work well because of noise like the car, metro, etc.

I've had something similar in mind for a long time now... mainly for use in home automation. (Clap twice to stop your MPD, etc.) ... would be great to see this get done! ;)
