Q: When did SpaceOut start?

A: SpaceOut started life as a spark of an idea in August 2007. We fairly quickly realised that this idea may have potential to help out a lot of people, not just in Australia - but worldwide. Three months later - after a great deal of discussion, market reasearch, and planning, the name "SpaceOut" was decided, and we started to document the basic functionality and plan how this system could be developed and implemented. 12 months later - on 1 December 2008, the initial site was launched to the Australian public.
