This approach, at least for my setup, would require opening up a port in my server's firewall as well.

The other benefit is that ngrok provides a nice web interface so you can watch and inspect web requests as they go by.

Don't forget HTTPS support. Great if you're developing something like a Facebook app where you have to give them a HTTPS endpoint to hit.
