Whisher has launched!

Maybe you saw us at DEMO. Maybe you read about us on a blog, and maybe you have followed our below-the-radar signature for the last few months. So, you will be asking yourself, what is Whisher? Whisher was born out of two premises: one, that WiFi will (and should!) become salt & pepper, free for everyone, and ubiquitous; second, that WiFi, until now, was really boring. There were the early times of wardriving, when we used to enjoy toying with equipment, and chasing new WiFi networks, but over time, WiFi has become yet another access technology, with no personality, and lacking fun.

Whisher will let you do too many things to explain - it is better to download it, and check it out by yourself. We will dedicate the next few posts to explain the various features and possibilities Whisher offers.

One of the main highlights is that Whisher allows you to share your existing WiFi with others, without having to reconfigure your router, reflash it, or purchase additional equipment. If you have a WiFi router or access point, no matter what brand or model, you can share it with Whisher. Sharing can also be precisely controlled - with the whole world, or with just a group of buddies, creating community networks within the network.

2006 was a really hectic year, with development taking place in five countries across three continents, the coordination of which became a really complex task. It all came through, and we are very proud of our team, and what we have achieved over such a short period of time. So, welcome to the new era of WiFi, enjoy the ride!
