Quickpedia for iPhone/iPod Touch
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (iPhone/iPod Touch)" @ 09:00 AM
"Quickpedia is a simple, free app for browsing Wikipedia. What makes Quickpedia worth the download over simply navigating to Wikipedia from Safari is the easy-to-read interface and the search history. The app remembers all of your searches, lists them on the home screen, and-this is key-saves every article you've read to your iPhone or iPod touch for future reference offline. (The app does not save images, however.)"
Pretty good app for what it does, and it also has a "nearby" tab that uses your location to give you information on nearby landmarks and cities. It isn't accurate enough to give you directions I use other things for that anyway. And it is free so it is pain free if you don't like it. Well other than losing some of your time.
