Encyclopaedia Brittanica. iPhone / iPad. $1.99 / month. Back in the day, the Encyclopaedia Brittanica filled shelves and volumes and cost thousands of dollars. Now, it fills an iPhone app and costs $1.99. The app includes over 80,000 articles written by experts and thoroughly fact-checked. Contributors include over 100 Nobel Laureates plus subject gurus like Bill Clinton, Tony Hawk, and Desmond Tutu. Access to the articles requires a monthly subscription auto-charged to your iTunes account. If you have need for handy expert resources on a variety of topics, the $1.99 may be a value proposition. At least until you get through the college years.
