From Reuters: In conjunction with this month’s theatrical release of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” the BBC has launched H2G2, a wi-fi mobile service that allows users access to information about the anything, including the galaxy. The service is updated by users, in a similar way to Wikipedia, although H2G2 predates the popular online encyclopedia, as it was launched in 1999 by author Douglas Adams. The BBC took over the service in 2001 and is now making the mobile capability available to anyone with a mobile wireless device.
