Since a lot of you are asking - this doesn't store numbers, collect data, or track anything other than hits via Google Analytics and API hits on Twilio.

No marketing scam, no selling of address books - just a little hack to make people smile.

I really, really really, really really really hate things that collect data and use it for marketing purposes or spam. I added a disclaimer to the bottom of the page (thanks @seszett for that idea) with words to that effect too.

From twilio :

> When you use our [...] services Twilio may collect from you the following personally identifiable information: [...] and phone number. [...] Twilio may keep a cached copy of the content you serve us as a part of your use of the service for an indeterminate amount of time

although I believe your good intentions that doesn't imply I trust Twilio...
