iPhone App of the Week: Articles

Wikipedia is one of the most useful tools available on the internet today, providing users with countless amounts of information on any topic.

But browsing the Wikipedia site on your iPhone can be a bit difficult, even with the mobile version. The iPhone app Articles attempts to ease the process for you.

The app itself works just like the mobile site – you type in a topic in the search box and the article appears. But a suite of features makes the experience so much better, including the ability to search text in the current article, mark interesting features and switch between article pages, just as you can in Safari.

Articles can be shared between users via email, and you can even more some of the most recently viewed articles while you’re offline.

If you’re a regular Wikipedia user, this app is a must have. It costs $1.19 and is on the App Store now.
