Twilio Leaps The Pond: Now Live In The UK, All Of Europe By Years End
Over the last few years, developer-facing services like Heroku and AWS have proven immensely popular, helping reduce the hassles that programmers have to deal with. One of the biggest success stories along these lines has been Twilio, which launched back in 2008 and has raised around $15 million in funding to date.The company does something that sounds deceptively simple: it makes baking phone calls and text messages into an app straightforward, with a handful of intuitive commands like "dial" and "say" as its basic building blocks. This API has proven to be much easier to use than the services that were used in the pre-Twilio days, and growth has surged over the last year.But there's been one big issue: Twilio's functionality has been severely handicapped outside of the United States.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/CBQN5PJYWW4/
