Thanks to WikipediaFS, Wikipedia fiends tired of reloading pages in the browser can now, provided they’re using Linux, mount the site as a virtual filesystem.
WikipediaFS is a mountable Linux virtual file system that enables you to view and edit Wikipedia (or any Mediawiki-based site) articles as if they were real files.
