I went to an event once where a Twilio developer evangelist presented and he did the live coding exercise. Using flask he wrote a quick server, and started receiving text messages from the audience in about 5 minutes. Then he applied a NLP library to the text messages, all in all quite impressive.

Here's a copy of his presentation, it was pretty awesome to watch. https://github.com/RobSpectre/Talks/tree/master/SMS%20For%20...
