Thanks Tilman. It's nice to see apps using Wikipedia data. My personal favorite is FieldTrip[1] which is basically the same thing as Curiousity but with more data sources[2].
Since Curiousity is charging for the app, it would be nice to see them contribute back to projects in some way. -Toby [1] http://www.fieldtripper.com/ [2] Interestingly, the same people who made field trip went on the make Ingress which proves a virtual world is more interesting than the real world ;) On Tue, Dec 29, 2015 at 12:19 AM, Tilman Bayer <[email protected]> wrote: > Launched on December 8.
