To start off with I must say that Ribbit has come a long way. I joined the beta program back in Nov 2007 and started messing around with the framework. After doing little with the framework for about a year or so I started re-learning the API and then updating some code examples I had built to be compatible with their 2.5 release. There were alot of great enhancements to the API with the 2.5 release. At the same time they released the version update they also announced a contest for developers.
I decided I was going to enter into the contest and see how it went. I made it into the 3rd checkpoint, but fell short of placing in the top 5. Further motivated, I created another application (SimpleSignal Phone) along with the my first application (mailFone) -- video after the jump. I enhanced my mailFone to include incoming screens as well as outgoing, and integrated Plaxo photos for a visual identification of incoming calls or outgoing calls.
So here are my two entries:
mailFone:

It was really fun working with the Ribbit API and I know that I will use it more frequently and hopefully sell some apps.
Ribbit Ribbit!
