Look Out iPhone! Encyclopedia Britannica Coming Your Way!

You're a real sucker for high quality information and really nice looking pictures that depict the subjects that you're interested in? You never cease to expand your knowledge by reading books, browsing the web for new pieces of information that are related to what you have already stored in your brain? You also happen to own an Apple device called iPhone?

Then look no further. All your information needs will be satisfied by the newly launched Encyclopedia Britannica, the iPhone Edition. All you have to do is redirect your iPhone's browser to i.eb.com where you will be able to access scholar quality content from the oldest encyclopedia still in print (English language encyclopedia, that is).

You can now easily forget the days when you've been searching for hours in a library filled with dusty books for some piece of information. Now all you will have to do is to search the Britannica database with the help of your trusty iPhone and, with a tap on its touchscreen, you will get easy access to all of the content you would have been browsing for in lots and lots of dusty books.

As Dan Smith, senior vice president at Encyclopedia Britannica, declared: "It's been live for about two weeks, and I can't get enough of it. It's fast, easy to use and the articles look stunning."

While you will be browsing through Britannica's articles, you will also be able to get access to thousands of thumbnail size related images (that will expand to full size when highlighted), and will also notice the bandwidth optimized page layouts. Having your iPhone ready to go surfing for new and interesting information will quickly make you wonder how you had spent all that time without the instant knowledge gratification the Encyclopedia Britannica, iPhone Edition, is capable of.

Dan Smith also declared for Britannica that "People today want information wherever they go. They want to satisfy their curiosity the moment it's aroused, whether they're on a train, in a restaurant talking to friends, or watching a sunset on the beach. Now we can get answers to them in ways that weren't possible before."

Furthermore, as you will be able to read on the Britannica.com website, "Britannica's new iPhone reference tool features a comprehensive library of article and image content from the world-famous Encyclopedia Britannica, providing users quick and easy access to over one million pages of content anytime, anywhere."
