You're right, http://ifttt.com/channels/ http://ifttt.com/channels/ is full of services I don't use either. However, it does have RSS, Gmail, and Date and Time triggers, and actions like send an email or make a phone call that are quite generic. Gmail isn't exactly a trendy new service anymore, but I think it would be a huge improvement if they allowed you to configure ifttt to trigger or mail from any POP/IMAP compatible account. Also, a channel for power users like "run this script" or to make a new channel would be awesome.
