Um, but that's just seeing the Bay Area. Sure, that's worthwhile, but what about that makes it the Silicon Valley? The mountains, the houses, the downtowns -- those have very little to do with what Silicon Valley is.

I'm surprised SuperHappyDevHouse and Hacker Dojo were not mentioned. Many people, including local press, describe both as microcosms of Silicon Valley culture. If you want to see Silicon Valley, sure, go to Palo Alto and drive 280... but

Considering that Twilio is purely a platform company (even more so than Amazon Web Services, since they primarily have an online store to run), this seems very unlikely if not entirely impossible.

ReverseHTTP is just a spec and not a very popular one. Localtunnel is based on SSH tunneling which has been around longer than ReverseHTTP, especially for this particular purpose. And while Hookout is a great tool, I'm not sure why it was m

Notify.io has had webhooks and so much more. But yes, yay webhooks.

I agree with all these points. Some of them are out of practicality since it's not fulltime. Btw, telephone means actually calling you via telephony, not mobile. However, an iPhone client is planned. Obviously marketing something like this

The idea is to delegate responsibility of paying for infrastructure resources (SMS) from the developer to the user. At $5/mo for 160 messages, that's roughly what you would be pay using Twilio directly at 3 cents a message. The unused texts

Both good points. We're on it.

Yeah, that was one of the original sets I wanted it to support, but I think they were missing some important ones.

Gravatar is used all over the place and is almost always hotlinked. Download if you want and you know the set of types you need icons for. Otherwise, it's just easier to blindly hotlink.

I think it's great this idea is gaining mindshare. However it seems like most people miss the point... even after me telling them they are.

I think Joshua Schachter told me something like 40% of hits on delicious return Not Modified. Because of polling.

Despite the introduction, this is not really about the controversy around the word "hacker" ... it's about hacker culture and making it more explicit. Perhaps I'm preaching to the choir here, and I'm sure you're sick of the semantics discus

Very cool, simple implementation of pubsub with webhooks. The DoS issue is something to consider, but keep in mind there are plenty of other ways to DoS, probably more efficient ways. Auth is a big topic in webhooks right now. The allow fil

Don't forget protocol-droid, SuperHappyDevHouse, Hacker Dojo, TIGdb, working at NASA, etc etc I'm actually very surprised at the number of people happy with DevjaVu as a service since after the first year or so I spent very little time work
