I don’t know about you guys but Wikipedia is one of my favorite places to go while on the web. The information might not always be accurate but you will surely get a general idea of the topic you were researching. And Wikipedia is a must-have on one’s mobile.
Orange and the Wikimedia Foundation have announced a partnership and European subscribers should be happy to know that Orange phones will get Wiki content soon enough. What you can expect is Wikipedia-dedicated channels on Orange’s web and mobile portals at first, Wikipedia-based widgets and even applications. That means Wikipedia will load a whole lot more faster on Orange phones in the near future. The service will be launched in the UK, Spain, France and Poland at first but other European markets will follow.
