Web Community For Web Professionals

New name, Jobalize becomes Who's Web.
This name better fits the service: a directory of web talents, for people who works around the web and want to exchange, collaborate or meet locally. Of course all permalinks are still working and are redirect to Who's Web. We added new markers for events like barcamps, local meetings, .... You can see who is coming and from where, so if it's a long distance may be you could do the trip together.
The site is based on a Google map search, where you can enter in a city or zone and see a list of people and events in the area. The locations are tagged on the map and exact directions are available. If a city search does not provide the right results you can improve the search by expanding the mileage of the area. With every search members can view the people and events and their specific purpose. For example, when searching “New York City” the right side of the page lists members and their specific area of expertise. Who’s Web is the new and improved version of Jobalize.com. The differences are that the new version is “two to three times faster” and has a new slick design that is easier to navigate. Additionally, to stay updated there is an RSS feed that notifies members of new subscriptions, tools, and events. Looking towards the future, Who’s Web is planning to provide a custom RSS feed to find out who is joining the site in your own area.
