Wikipedia into a book? Sounds interesting!! Yes it's true...

Wikipedia,the world's best free online knowledge portal now turned into book by Rob Matthews a 22 year old graphic design student from Brighton, Sussex.What is even more interesting is that he compiled it in just 2 weeks!

This book contains hundreds of featured articles,you might wonder if you know the size of the book..it stands 1 ft 7 inches(48cm 28mm)and features as many as 5000 pages.

"I'm comparing the internet Wikipedia to a traditional encyclopedia by putting it in the same format. I wanted to make a comment on how everyone goes to the internet these days for information, yet it is very unreliable compared to what it has replaced," said the 22-year-old student.

As of now this book is not for sale,but they are hoping to put it on the market later.
