BBC's h2g2 Goes Mobile - Again

zaktheduck writes "According to a recent press release, in anticipation of the new movie and the h2g2 website's sixth birthday, the BBC have relaunched the long-shelved h2g2 Mobile service. The new version of the popular community website allows access to the 7000+ and growing edited guide entries from PDAs, and smartphones. H2g2 had a WAP service back in 2001, aptly named "h2g2 on the Move", but was cancelled when the company faced financial trouble and was purchased by the BBC. Here's a copy of the old promotion page for the service."

    I say we urge Putin to bring back the USSR.

    Dare I say that might be a good idea, so much as it's not the USSR past 1925 or so. All power to the Soviets! This time, for real! Not just to the Politburo or General Secretary/Chairman of the Presidium.
