I actually did something similar to that for a bachelor party - there were 10 of us, combinations of iphones and androids. Rather than having everyone exchange phone numbers for a group SMS, I asked everyone to text their name to a twilio phone number. (XXX-XX-PARTY)
If the twilio number received a text from someone not in the db, it added it. If it was in the database, it would prefix any message they sent with their name: and send the text to everyone else in the db.
Worked out great. Cost me about $20 for the weekend though. :)
- toomuchtodo 13y agoGithub the code?
- klinquist 13y agoCan't locate it right now... I actually used redis sets (list of numbers) and key/values (number->name) instead of a traditional db (just because I wanted to familiarize myself more with redis at the time). I consider myself a 'prototyping engineer' and when I want to learn a new technology, I try to learn it while solving a problem in my personal life :).

- toomuchtodo 13y agoVery awesome of you. Thanks!
- klinquist 13y agoThat's a lot prettier than my code was!
