A convenient, mongoose based 'session' system for Twilio requests. This package exposes req.phone, an object you can manipulate. It persists this object at the end of each request. The next time a user with the same phone number makes a request, you'll have access to whatever you stored in req.phone.

app.post("/twilio",function(req,res,next) {
console.log(req.phone)
if(!req.phone.messages) {
req.phone.messages = [req.body.Body];
} else {
req.phone.messages.push(req.body.Body);
}
var resp = new twilio.TwimlResponse();
resp.say('You said' + req.body.Body);
res.type('text/xml');
res.send(resp.toString());
})
app.listen(8000);
