I look forward to playing around with this.

- aparks517 6y agoOh, wow. I had missed that Ask HN. Thanks for making that connection! There are a bunch of cool suggestions in that thread, particularly regarding photography. I can't get over how good photography has gotten on phones.
- DiggyJohnson 6y agoTotally, I am a bit obsessed with that thread (and the lack of obvious answers). Did you use any special tooling to handle SMS in this application? I didn't realize that this wasn't open-sourced when you first posted it. I would absolutely help maintain this project if you ever get bored of it and don't want to maintain it yourself.
- aparks517 6y agoTwilio does the heavy lifting with SMS. My piece is just a short Perl CGI script that downloads attached pictures and rebuilds the sender's site. Thanks! I'll keep that in mind.
