iPad explorations with Qwiki

Qwiki

The developers behind the Qwiki website have produced a pretty cool iPad app version of the site. The app looks like a great way to experience Qwiki's narrated-encyclopaedia version of the world, offering location-sensitive lookups and making full use of the touch-capabilities of the iPad.

"Qwiki's fundamental belief has always been that media consumption is moving off the desktop," says co-founder and CEO Doug Imbruce. The company, which recently raised $9 million in funding, has released the app for free.

I think Qwiki is amazing!
The capability of generating those information on the fly is just superb!
I've posted a quick review with lots of screenshots highlighting numerous small innovations within the apps here: http://bit.ly/gJQRZO
It's great to finally see how Wikipedia articles, Fotopedia pictures, YouTube videos and other resources can be aggregated into an astonishing learning experience on the iPad.
