Wikipedia Officially Launches Mobile Site

The online encyclopedia Wikipedia has officially launched their mobile site. It has been in beta for quite a while but now it is on a new server and considered good enough to call it done.

The Wikimedia Tech Blog says that the iPhone, Android, Palm Pre and Amazon (NSDQ: AMZN) Kindle are officially supported. You can access the site by going to m.wikipedia.org on your phone's browser. The site should support mobile redirects as well, so if you are reading an article, such as this blog post, and in the midst of a brilliant political analysis it references Antidisestablishmentarianism, when you click on that link from your supported phone, it should redirect to the mobile site. more
