There is a lovely small program which makes it possible to access Wikipedia offline by installing it ;locally on your hard drive. WikiTaxi enables you to read, search, and browse Wikipedia offline. No Internet connection is needed, all pages are stored in a WikiTaxi database.
The installation of Wiki Taxi is not greater than 2 MB, but you’ve still outside the XML file that included the Wikipedia version of your choice is packed. To do so, in search of a so-called database dump, back-ups that the encyclopedia itself regularly makes. Depending on the language can copy such a large increase in size. The simple implementation of the English version is around 8 GB in size.
Overall :
- WikiTaxi is well documented, and it is fun to use.
- Most impressive feature is offline availability.
- External links do not work for reason is obvious however Internal linking is pretty well.
- You will miss Wikipedia images being offline.
