Official Wikipedia For Android Available Now – The official Wikipedia for Android app is finally here and you can do your homework, research and just read the open encyclopedia on your mobile on the go now. Previously, all the Wikipedia app on the Android Market are from the third-party.

The app is free and you can save an article for offline reading later and search articles which is nearby to your location. You can also share the articles you are reading to your friend using the Android’s built-in “Share” function. To gain more knowledge, I highly recommend this Wikipedia for Android app.

Download Wikipedia For Android for free on Android Market.

This could be bad if the bill is passed because you will not be able to access many website on the Internet that provides free information. Internet is supposed to be free and open to everyone. They can’t just block people from accessing free material. It’s just so wrong. Wikipedia English site has blacked out for a day to raise awareness on this. Many people are making a buzz on the Internet for not able to access Wikipedia.

My Flickr account has blacken out too, but I can choose not to black out my photo.

Get FREE MiFi With Maxis 6GB Broadband Plan – Now Maxis is giving out FREE Huawei MiFi modem (worth RM280) when you subscribe to their 6GB Broadband Plan at RM98 per month (RM88 per month for Maxis Postpaid user) on a 12-months contract basis.

In addition, there’s a RM100 activation fee and RM200 penalty charge when you terminate before the contract period. Well, the broadband plan is nice because it gives you free MIFI modem. The MIFI modem allows you to create mobile hotspot on the go for your mobile device to connect.

If you ask me whether do I need it? I’d say no because I has a Android device with data plan and I can create mobile hotspot with my phone too. =D

Anyway, head over to Maxis for more information about this new deal.

Facebook Chat On Windows With Messenger for Windows – Are you a frequent user of the Facebook Chat? Now you don’t have to turn on your browser, go to Facebook.com to chat with you friend. You can download the Facebook’s Messenger for Windows, which is a standalone app that you can install on your Windows system and chat with your friends.

The Messenger for Windows includes the chat system, notification system and friend request, it’s just like Facebook ported into an application. UI doesn’t change a bit from the Facebook, so nothing to fancy much about it. It also has pop-up notification to show your Facebook activity like who like or post on your wall, status, photos and more.

One more thing, I find the UI quite boring, despite having a standalone app, it should somehow has a different standalone design.

You can download it now for free on Facebook. Check out the help centre for more details.

Lower Monthy Mobile Internet Plan By Maxis – The reason I went to DiGi last time is because DiGi has cheaper data plan at RM68/month for 3GB data. Now I can consider switching back to Maxis because their 3GB data plan has reduced price from RM88 to RM68. Maxis has just revised their Mobile Internet Package, all at a lower rate.

Good news for Maxis user, however you will still get extra charges when you excess your allowed quota at RM0.30/MB compare to previously RM10/MB, which is a lot cheaper now. Somehow, I think Maxis should cap speed instead of charging extra for excess usage. Anyway, considering Maxis has a wide 3G coverage, the revised Mobile Internet Plan is worthwhile.

Head over to Maxis website to check out more about it.

Monitor 3G Data Usage On Android With 3G Watchdog App – Are you running tight on your mobile data usage due to the data quota provided by your telco company? Always exceed your allowed quota and get extra charged for over usage? Now you can monitor your data usage on your Android device with 3G Watchdog app. A recommended app that can tell you how much data you have used, and how much left in your data quota.

Besides showing how much 3G data you have used, it also tracks your Wifi data usage too. 3G Watchdog lets you to know your mobile data usage pattern.

You can set your data quota and warning when you almost reach your quota so you can slow down your mobile Internet usage. Last time, I introduced about NetSentry which does similar thing, but then I found that the 3G Watchdog is a better app.

DiGi Gila Internet Sales – Crazy Internet Devices Discount – DiGi is having a crazy Internet sale right now until end of January 2012. A numbered of powerful Internet devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9, HTC, BlackBerry and more are on sale right now with a subscription of the DG Smart Plan 68.

Moreover, you get an extra RM20 rebate on your monthly plan which become RM48 per month get you a saving of RM480 in your contract period (24 months), meaning that you pay only RM48 per month only. I find the promotion is quite worthwhile given that you can get the Galaxy S2 at RM1,199. Too bad there’s no iPhone in the list, but overall, this is a good promotion.

Head over to the website for more detail.

Weather Info In Google Maps – Maps is always a navigation tool. I believe many of you do use Google Maps to look for places and direction. However, have you ever think of looking on weather information and updates on a map? Now you can do it with the Google Maps as Google has added a new weather layer on it.

The Weather Layer displays current temperature and conditions around the world which makes planning of trips and caring for family and friends even easier. You are also able to check out the weather forecast for the next four days, as well as current humidity and wind conditions. This service is a collaboration from Weather.com with Google.
