Wow - I like this a lot. A very simple idea that's actually useful! How long did this take to create? Aside from Twilio and GroupMe what are you using to power it behind the scenes?

One note - if you're going to have people turn over their phone numbers to you - its probably best to include a privacy policy of some sort that explains how they will (or won't) be used.

Thanks. Yeah, I created this over the course of a few hours. It is hosted on Google App Engine and uses Twilio to setup the Groupme numbers (by sending an SMS)

To clarify, I am not going to use the phone numbers in any way. I do send them over to Groupme (to add to the group) so I cannot speak for them. This is more of a pet project currently and am not going to be spamming the phones or anything. I just wanted to see if people like it.

I agree. I should throw up a privacy policy. Any easy policies to throw up?

[Edit] - I posted an explanation as a placeholder Privacy Policy. No legal language, but it at least clarifies things.
