The idea
We, Bernhard and Hans-Jörg, two guys from Germany, had the idea for askmommy.org in summer 2003. We hung out and needed something to eat. After visiting a supermarket we chose to cook boiled potatoes, mexican vegetables and wiener. But we did not have a clue about how to make these boiled potatoes (we were bachelor boys who just moved out a year ago - so what are you expecting?).
So what did we do? We did what every young man would do in this situation: Hans-Jörg called his all knowing mommy who told us how to cook these potatoes.
After getting off the phone we had an enlightenment - the hour of birth of the german website "www.frag-mutti.de" (what means "ask mommy").
We knew: cooking boiled potatoes was one of the easiest things - but we did not know. We wanted to change this circumstance...
Things are getting started...
The german website was launched in September 2003. The english version askmommy.org exists since spring 2006.
