Excerpt: In 2011, Garrett, John and Ash started SendHub to build a communications platform for Garrett’s nephew’s school.

on 03/19/2013
Excerpt: Twilio recently introduced the new noun which lets you directly dial a SIP server from your Twilio app. But what if you don’t have a SIP server? In this post I’ll show you how you can set up and use FreeSWITCH, a free, cross platform and open source communication server that includes SIP capabilities, to try out the noun.

Excerpt: You may have noticed we’ve been a little quiet around here lately. That’s because we’ve been busy elves, working on a host of projects, not the least of which is that our own Tropo community manager, Cristina Moe Salanova, gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.

Every now and again, a court case comes along that stands to rewrite the legal rules of the computing industry -- and we might just be at such a juncture right now. Oracle's suit against Google over Java and Android could be one such case. It's putting to the test the notion that application programming interfaces -- APIs -- can be copyrighted. In a partial verdict today, a jury gave Oracle a hard-fought "yes" when U. S.... read the full post.
My Thoughts: This story has the best detail I've seen of any of the posts so far. This post has a wealth of links and raw data that I need to dive into. I'm setting aside for more research.
