Wapedia Works!
Published by Rudy De Waele November 28th, 2005 in MuLiMob, Mobile Apps, Mobile Web, web 2.0, Announcements, Analysis Tags: Analysis, Announcements, Mobile Apps, mobile web, MuLiMob, wapedia, web 2.0, wikipedia.I checked Wapedia with some keywords related to the MuLiMob Event this week in London… it’s simple and it works!
Wapedia - the mobile encyclopedia is a service from Florian Amrhein and exists since august 2004. Wapedia brings the content of Wikipedia to mobile devices like mobile phones or PDAs, so the articles are licensed under the GNU FDL license.
For example I searched on the word “Crammed”, for Crammed Discs - 5,210,000 entries in Google, but luckily tagged correctly in Wikipedia. Below the results on screen.
Wikipedia internal links work perfectly, the trouble starts when you get out of course. Nearly NO websites are adapted for mobile web browsing yet, there’s still a lot of work ahead! It also convinced me again that web 2.0 is definately going to be important for mobile web browsing development.
