Since I wasn't able to pull it up last night, I just wanted to include the link to our site here for anyone interested in checking us out: http://www.olo.com/
I also realized that in my haste to make my introduction quick I forgot to mention that we actually use Amazon Web Services for many things at OLO, in case you found the talk interesting and are looking for a place to explore that area.
Thanks everyone!
