Wikipedia is finally stepping into the App world with their own application for the iPhone. After looking into it and seeing all it offers, it doesn’t seem that great. The app isn’t much different than the mobile website that they offer. It does offer a history search however, which is convenient when trying to reference an old search. The only other benefit to having the app is direct access from your home screen instead of going to your bookmarks (if you had it bookmarked to begin with). Over all not a very impressive app but not bad for just getting into the app scene for the iPhone. You can check out the differences in the mobile web page and the app below.
