Gollum - the Wikipedia Browser


If you think Wikipedia is just about the coolest thing to hit the Internet since Tim Berners-Lee invented HTTP, then you'll get a charge out of Gollum. Imagine if your web pages could have appropriate Wikipedia terms hyperlinked, such that when a user clicks on the link, a special popup Wikipedia browser for that term is displayed. Bingo. Bango. Bongo. That's what Gollum is. Check it out and prepare to be amazed. Or at least, pleasantly surprised at the utility of Javascript and Wikipedia joining forces.
