Summary

This developer contest was won by Timothee Boucher with his app "Voice Comments for Box", which allows users to record short voice comments and attach them to any document stored in their Box account, using Twilio Client, transcription, and Box API. The app transcribes the message and adds it to the document, enabling other users to listen to messages in-line. Timothee, a Bay Area-based developer from France, built the app with a little jQuery and won a prize pack including a free 50GB Box account, a Kindle Fire, and a full pass to TwilioCon 2012. He is looking forward to the conference as it was his first enjoyable experience last year and he's excited to meet fellow developers in person.
