I'm really upset that work kept me too busy to participate, I didn't realize Twilio could do more than send text messages and I saw a ton of possibilities. I think I will definitely add it to my toolkit for embedded projects...as soon as I find that mythical work-life balance again.

We'll hopefully host more hackathons in the future! For embedded projects you should also check out our Twilio IoT products :) Let me know if you have any questions about it and I'm happy to connect you with our IoT Evangelist

What!? How exciting! This was such a fun and difficult challenge, and it was so nice to see the work everyone did! I'm really loving all the new stuff I learned during this. Thanks for giving me something to do from home! Remote hackathons FTW!

This is a huge honor for my collaborator and I. Thanks again for putting in all of the work to host, judge, and facilitate something special.
