I'm still suprised! I just got the word that I have won one of the categories in Ribbit's Killer App Challenge Contest!!! I won the Carrier, Network, ISP Integration category with my Simple Softphone. Along with winning the contest I want to say thanks to SimpleSignal for coming along side and approving my work. We plan to take this phone to the next level by integrating features from both the Broadworks platform and the Ribbit platform. Thank you as well to Ribbit for putting on the contest. It was alot of fun and was overall a great success. There were 129 application entries and 453 registered participants in the contest. Kudos also goes out to Top Coder for orchestrating the contest and making it all happen on the technical side.
I plan to continue the development of my apps and winning the 15k will definitely help in making sure I can do just that. I've always been a Flash lover and more recently Flex. I'm super excited to see the changes that are coming soon to the Ribbit platform to allow developers to monetize their applications. With the flexible pricing model that Ribbit has, I forsee there being plenty of mini applications, but also full blown apps that deliver all the features Ribbit has to offer.
Stay tuned, because there are going to be alot of cool things happening with this as the year goes on.
