Tropo Sponsors Startup Weekend Phoenix!
Tuesday, October 12th, 2010Win with Tropo and Rails Rumble
Tuesday, October 12th, 2010This weekend, hundreds of teams of Rails developers from around the globe will participate in Rails Rumble, a competition to see who can build the greatest Rails app in a single weekend.

A Perfect Storm: Mashing up Tropo with Google Latitude
Tuesday, October 12th, 2010I just created a web app, for free, that enables anyone in the continental United States to call a special phone number and get their local weather read to them. They can then hop in their car, drive 500 miles down the highway, call the same number, and get the updated weather. Dont’ you just love 2010?
New WebAPI examples up for Ruby & Sinatra, PHP & Limonade, Node.js & Express.js
Monday, October 11th, 2010The vast majority of developers using our WebAPI will use one of the published, available libraries on Github. It’s true, some might be able to work with simple JSON – maybe their app only works with yes or no situations – while others might choose to write their own library to suit their specific needs. But most of you will find your happy place within the functionality of the existing Ruby, PHP, Python, Node.js or C# libraries.
Asterisk & Tropo and a Single Adhearsion Dialplan

A key goal of Tropo AGItate is to allow you to use Tropo seamlessly with an existing Asterisk server.

Howto Install and Use Tropo AGItate

Last Friday we announced Tropo AGItate on the Voipusers Conference. As you may recall, AGItate is a Tropo script that turns Tropo into an Asterisk platform in the cloud. This script allows you to run any FastAGI framework controlling Tropo as if it were an Asterisk server.
The Winners of the Portland OpenGov Hackathon are…
Monday, October 4th, 2010Tropo and GeoLoqi would like to thank all of the participants in the yesterday’s 8 hour open government hackathon! At 8:30 AM, approximately 25 code warriors converged on NedSpace, a Portland co-working space, for a full day of social hacking and a mission to change the world. The goal was to find local government data available through either CivicApps.org, run by Rick Nixon and the city of Portland, or PDX API, run by Max Ogden – master opengov hacker, and integrate it into an application that used either Tropo’s cloud communications API or GeoLoqi’s geo API (or both).

Use Node.js & Javascript to Write Your Tropo Apps
Friday, October 1st, 2010
Today we would like to announce the availability of the Tropo WebAPI Node library for Node.js and the Tropo WebAPI. I have had a lot of fun working with the author – Mark Headd – to both grok Node.js and play with Tropo using this rising star of a framework.
Tropo Now Speaks Asterisk Gateway Interface (AGI)
Friday, October 1st, 2010The Asterisk community is a vibrant one, one that we actively support through our sponsorship and advocacy of Adhearsion. We have decided to take it a step further and created a Tropo Scripting application that turns Tropo into a giant Asterisk application platform in the cloud. You can now run just about any Asterisk AGI application on Tropo.
