# Happy Birthday to us...#

On 1st July 2007 WhosOff celebrated its first year as the internet's first and only free to use Online staff holiday and vacation planner...

Back in July 2006 we really had no idea how popular a service like this could be and have been surprised at the take up, not only amongst SMEs but also departments of some 'very' large businesses around the world.

Our aim is to make WhosOff the first choice for business and other organisations to manage staff holiday and vacation.We aim to keep the site friendly, easy to use and give first class support.

After favourable reviews on sites such as Techcrunch.com , Webware.com , Killerstartups.com and recently downloadsquad.com we can see the word is spreading.We can now boast a considerable and continously growing user base !

Thanks for all those who came on board and who support the site.
