Twilio ideas brainstorm: SMS, Voice, API
By Steve Poland • February 10, 2010
If anyone is looking for some business/application ideas for using Twilio … I have had some SMS & VXML ideas in the past.
I think using SMS to send URLs to the user, so they can click and view things in their smartphone, is going to really come into play. Or calling a # in a job classified ad to hear a full description about the job & company [audio is more personal than text]. Ditto on calling a number on a product at a store that I’m looking at to walk me through the features.
