What
WhatsApp Inc. is an early stage technology startup founded in the heart of Silicon Valley. What does the name mean you ask? Well, WhatsApp is a pun onWhat's Up in case you didn't get it yet:)
Why
Because we want to build a better SMS alternative. Because we believe we can. Because someday very soon everybody will have a Smartphone.
Who
WhatsApp was founded by two guys who spent combined 20 years doing geeky stuff at Yahoo! Inc. before starting WhatsApp Inc.
The question is....
Do we pronounce it as What's Up (as in upstairs) or What's App (as in Application)?
