Yea for staying open source! Thanks, guys. I don't have any questions, but wow, I love it. Okay, one: When will it be available? First time I've seen "minifies" definition is obvious.

@basche42 that's what we were aiming for :) haha
@sandracarden, we're aiming to launch this week for Android. iOS will soon follow.
These guys (@stestefanfan, @therealbrohith, @justicetsuh, and Shreyas Raman) built this in 36 hours at MHacks.
They also recently turned down VC money in favor of bootstrapping/staying open source.
Kudos guys!
This is amazing. I have no idea what the app itself looks like, but please let me know if you guys need some UI/UX contributions. I'd love to pitch in!
@tymrtn in their words: “So we created a web browser app. the app sends a text to our twilio backend which is the url you want. then the backend gets the HTML of that url, it minifies it, compresses it with the GZIP compression algorithm, encodes it in Base64 and then sends the data stream as a series of text messages to the phone which then get read and the browser renders the HTML.“
@tymrtn it says that the messages come back at the rate of 3 per second, so I guess it really depends on how long that Base64 string is and how many messages it gets split into.
