Hit The Slopes: Timmy Crawford Sends Snow Updates via SMS Alerts

Timmy Crawford is a developer who built ConePatrol, an SMS alert system that sends fresh powder updates to skiers via Twilio. The service has gained popularity with over 1,000 users, mostly due to the ease of use and the fact that it doesn't require a native app download. Timmy's experience as IT Manager at Mt. Bachelor also influenced his development skills, leading to the creation of "Track Your Turns" system. ConePatrol's success showcases the versatility of SMS in applications beyond traditional push notifications. With limited advertising, the service has passed its 1,000 subscriber mark and is now exploring new features such as tracking ski runs via SMS alerts. Timmy plans to expand his Twilio hacks into other niches, including MMS support, and is excited about the potential for innovative applications in this space.
