A Place for Whingers to Whine and Moan

MEDIA RELEASE - AUGUST 2009

A Place for Whingers to Whine and Moan
www.worldwidewhinger.com

Whinging. We all do it. Some more than others and now there’s a place where whingers can gather for a bit of gossip, banter and of course a good moan.

Worldwidewhinger.com has been developed by self-confessed whinger, Bev Ritchie.

“The word whinge originates from Scotland, says Ritchie. As a Scot myself I often get told that we tend to whinge rather a lot. However, having lived here for a while, I also know that New Zealanders like to do their fair share of whinging. So I decided to start worldwidewhinger.com and let everyone join in with me!”

“Having a good whinge is a great way to get things off your chest. At worldwidewhinger.com we’ve got topics to suit everyone’s interests including politics, pets, television and travel.”

“Users can start their own discussion, or venture into someone else’s topic to give them a piece of their mind.”

“For those whingers who don’t mind the heat, we’re working on a new live chat feature that allows you to throw in your opinion, stir things up and watch the reactions unfold”, says Ritchie.

However it's not all just about heated debate, and for those tabloid junkies out there the site also has some good old-fashioned celebrity gossip.

If all goes well with the New Zealand site, Ritchie has ambitious plans to make worldwidewhinger.com a global site and translate it into different languages.
For a good whinge and a little entertainment while you at it, simply head to www.worldwidewhinger.com log in, pick a topic and you’re off.
