Build apps in the cloud, apparently.

Why I need better analysis

By which I mean Web analysis.  Every now and again, I look at the stats Blogger sees fit to give me; I've ranted on that before (and referrer spam is getting worse and worse - it just doesn't make sense).  Today, though, I found an incoming search on "android app generator semantic" - this blog appears in second place, and further on down the list is GeneXus.com.  They have a product that looks like it actually does some of what I envision, and it registers on the radar because they also talk about explicit utilization of the semantic domain of the app's target.

I need a way to find the people doing and talking about what I'm thinking about.  That way would be statistics analysis, but let's face it, Google Analytics suck.

Twilio app builder

So yeah, after all this time, I'm finally to the point where I'm poking around Twilio and planning on how to build applications with it.  And it occurred to me that it might be cool to build a Twilio app builder, but (1) there already is one, and (2) I'm not sure it's such a fantastic idea anyway.  Who would be using Twilio that isn't already doing apps on the Web?  Or at the very least, running the apps in the cloud somewhere.

But it might still be an instructive thing to try, so I might give it a shot.

I'm starting a new topic "app builder" with this, because in general the idea of cutting out little apps or patterns is a nice one to think about.

Update: And a link to the example code here.
