Integrating free text messaging with @Twilio - service will be available in late April

As the launch of our Beta approaches we are making final preparations to add text messaging functionality. This would allow you to send free text messages to your friends via your iPhone or Android phone.

We found Twilio to be the easiest and quickest option to integrate text messaging with our application and have been thrilled by the service since. After updating our profile on Twilio and registering for their service I began receving personal emails from one of their customer service representatives:

Hi Robert,

I saw that you updated your public Twilio developer profile recently, so I wanted to drop you a note to see how things are going with FoxFly and ask if there is anything we can do to help?

At first I thought these were automated so I didn't pay too much attention, but as we began testing and interacting more with Twilio's API, we continued receiving messages, which was a really pleasant surprise. Eventually I replied and had a smart discussion and got some good feedback for Foxfly. If you are considering integrating text messaging functionality into your app I strongly recommend Twilio!
