About WhenWorld

WhenWorld by Nixarn was one of the winning entries in a startup contest called the Slush Seven at Slush Helsinki in 2008. Here's the pitch from last year for anyone interested WhenWorld @ Slush 2008. WhenWorld is currently pre-beta and made public only to be shown on Slush Helsinki 2009. Because it is pre-beta, there are bugs and big changes will happen. This means accounts and products might get removed and the site could get closed for days. The goal is to have a public beta by the end of this year.
