Jeff's localtunnel has been discontinued in favor of Ngrok. It was discontinued in the middle of a transition from ruby to python.

Is there a writeup somewhre of what happened?

localtunnel v1 worked perfectly for me, localtunnelv2 never did (apparently no remote server was ever up) but it's weird that ngrok is a ruby project again.

It worked off and on while v2 was under development. I think he just stopped working on it when Ngork was released (Mar 2013).
