Much obliged on the bug reports. We've corrected the number on the demo page and confirmed it is working now. If you both would like to shoot me an email to rob [at] twilio [dot] com, we'll ship you a t-shirt as thanks for pointi

Rob from Twilio here - thanks for using the service. Localization and fraud/spam protection are definitely the two most useful for Twilio Lookup, but suspect there are a couple more than might be less obvious. 1) Smarter Routing - qui

libphonenumber is definitely the jam for offline formatting - we use it all the time.

Hey Jon - Rob from Twilio here. Good feedback - appreciate you sharing. We do have geographic information with each webhook sharing city, state and zip - agree it would be useful to have this in the Lookup resources as well.

Thanks Adam - we're rooting for you as you head out. Building a business serving developers is indeed as difficult as you say, but also - to be fair - an endless amount of fun. Certainly nothing we'd rather be doing.

Very kind of you to say Tim. They put in an enormous amount of work to be prepared to serve you in the field. Lot more preparation ahead, but stoked you found it helpful.

A fair concern. I think Task Router is less going up the food chain and more going up the stack - we're trying to provide more abstraction for the state common to all these problems as a pure platform. My hope is all our customers can

I think more specifically the core state that drives an ACD abstracted into primitives any developer can manipulate. Does that make sense?

Rob from Twilio here. Very fair question - a lot of these concepts are foreign for folks that haven't worked in the call center space before. I think Al Cook on our product marketing team described it most aptly as referring to Task Ro

Totally fair solution. Some folks like to roll their own, some folks like to use ours. Important bit is the app is validating the data is sending and receiving. Param ordering changes in your framework can definitely hit. I've caugh

Awesome - stoked to hear SMS on toll-free numbers is working out for you. We're keen to extend MMS to them as well - don't have a timetable to share on that score.

Bandwidth are indeed a bunch of bright folks that do good work and we work with them on a number of products, but to be clear we are not reselling their messaging. Lot of effort by a large crew of committed developers and the helpful partic

Would love to learn more about why these messages are failing for you. Reckon you could shoot us some of the failed SmsSids to help@twilio.com? I'd be much obliged.

Much obliged Josh. Took a while, but we're having a lot of fun with it. Text a pic of yourself to (646) 846-8238 - you should get a sweet mustache back.

Much obliged for that. We still have a lot of work still here at Twilio to do around our documentation - appreciate the vote of confidence. Some of the stuff the DevX team is working on right now has me really excited. Hope you'll sha

Truly - moving off my triple headed desktop to my X1 carbon is always jarring, especially with merging. A few things that have helped me working with constrained real estate: 1) Terminal font choice - I switched to Inconsolata last year for
