Check out this quick hack I made with tropo :)

I have been hearing a lot of buzz lately about tropo, so I thought I would check it out.

The result of my curiosity is a simple app that helps you prank  your friends.

Now, keep in mind this is the result of only a couple of hours of programming hacking, since I was only evaluating tropo design and api.

The app is still in their dev as I am just getting started and saw no need of moving it to production yet :)

====

Basically you call this number and follow the directions.

It takes two phone numbers and calls them simultaneously like they were calling each other (Spoofing the caller id).

It sends them to a conference where you are waiting as well (muted, so they cannot hear you).

- The result? Two people awkwardly figuring out what the heck is going one while you laugh your arse off :P

 

You can help me 'test' it by calling any of these numbers:

 

Phone: (202) 600-8091
Skype Voice: +990009369991443646
INum Voice: +883510001809269

I have no idea how legal this is but I at least only have used it with closed relatives -hint hint-
Have fun and share your experiences :)
