Navify: A Better Wikipedia (with Images & Videos )

Wikipedia is a great free resource for information, however most of its articles mainly consist of text and few images. Some articles can be hard to understand just by reading the text description. There are sites like AgainButSlower that rewrite Wikipedia articles in plain English, the problem is they don’t do it for all articles.

So when you need more information on the subject and see related images or videos to better grasp the topic go to Navify.com. Navify is a new web service that makes Wikipedia better. It lets you browse each Wikipedia article along with relevant images (from Flickr) and videos (from YouTube) in one place. Similarly to Wikipedia you can anonymously contribute to content by adding more images and videos.
