connects you Phhotoresistor to IFTTT

Add conditional for notification to email/text

Need to break out of REST API literal to add global char pointers for event name and api keys string concatenation.  I will correct soon

+Connect the photoresistor one leg to pin 0, and pin to +5V
+Connect a resistor (around 10k is a good value, higher
+values gives higher readings) from pin 0 to GND. (see appendix of arduino notebook page 37 for schematics).
