Erik Lagerway, VoIP entrepreneur and Co-Founder & CEO at Gaboogie (the home of Lypp) started yesterday a discussion comparing Ribbit with the Lypp API. While I am not sure if this was Erik’s intention, Andy Abramson turned on the fire, by describing Erik’s post as extremely combative.
“… has taken the gloves off, grabbed the Ribbit guys by the jersey and just given them a pounding”
I see it in a different light. Both companies should be applauded for developing Voice 2.0 platforms. But they are different. Ribbit is a high profile VC funded company, while Lypp seems to be low profile and self funded (correct me if I am wrong). Ribbit bills itself as revolutionary while Lypp just gets the job done. You might compare the two to a flashy sports car and a Chevy pickup. If you are a handyman you may go for a night on the town with the sports car, but you still will drive your Chevy for your day job.
Is this a voip version of The Tortoise and the Hare? If so who will win? Both I hope!
