With a little luck, we’re going to be bringing you an Open Culture iPhone app in the next couple of months. In the meantime, here’s a handy list of iPhone apps for “serious self-learners.” Let me give you a quick sample of the apps you’ll find highlighted here: Aristotle’s complete works, The Oxford Dictionary of Literary Terms, Lonely Planet Japanese Phrasebook., The World Factbook ‘09, Taber’s Medical Dictionary, The Peterson Field Guide to Backyard Birds, and a lot more. Note, some of the apps are free, and others not.
PS: See Open Culture’s new free app that gives you access to hundreds of free audio books, university courses, foreign language lessons and more.
Thanks Bryan for the tip on this one.
This is a useful list…
Thank you for spreading word of the list…
The Narrator app which is currently number 3 on the “100 Best App” list, is a wonderful idea for those with tired eyes who just want to sit back and listen to a good story.
