This Perl Helper Library for Twilio allows developers to make calls from any computer to any phone at any time, with just two lines of code, making it a powerful tool for web-to-phone applications. The library was created by Scott Wiersdorf, who had an interest in Twilio after writing an API for another REST-y service and realized the potential of Twilio's API. Scott spent 4-5 hours learning about Twilio and wrote the library in under an hour, but took 3 hours to document it thoroughly. The library is now available on the Twilio forum for feedback and use, with plans for future development including a web-to-phone reminder system and integration with home automation systems.
