We need beta testers for our Windows XP and Mac WiFi plugins. We will give away WiFi Out credit, so that you can connect for free at thousands of commercial hotspots all around the world, including the best hotel chains, airports, coffee shops and so on. We are literally everywhere, thanks to our roaming agreements with operators like Swisscom, BT Openzone, AT&T, Wayport, and many more.
Please take a look at our coverage maps, and if you’re ready to check how easy it is to connect to those hotspots around you, just send us an email at info at whisher dot com.
WiFi Out is like Skype Out, but instead of voice minutes it gives you WiFi access minutes. It works as a plugin, which embeds nicely into your operating system, and allows automatic access to both commercial hotspots and shared hotspots (those contributed by the people).
We look forward to giving you truly free WiFi!

Since we launched Whisher, the forums have been active with users posting their comments and views, suggestions and bug reports. To improve the performance and features of our community forums, we have moved them to a vBulletin-based server. Amongst other things, the new forums will allow us the following:
- Use thread ratings and user reputations, as well as user titles.
- Quickly moderate and manage threads and posts.
- Add hacks and modifications, for example, to allow users to show their hotspot status.
- Have private forums for beta testers.
- Control automated spam.
We want our forums to become an open place for discussion, without censorship or regulation on what users can or cannot say about Whisher. We take user feedback, suggestions and criticisms very seriously, and use them to improve and move forward.
User accounts, threads and posts have been imported from the old forums, which now redirects to the new forums, found at http://forums.whisher.com. Please update your bookmarks, and enjoy!
