Wikitravel and travel resources offline
From: Hobobo Guide to Travel Guides
- Compete Wikitravel offline
First you need to download the wikitravel data dump here. It is just a text archive with all the text from the website. The archive format .bz2 file keeps the size small at only 40MB. You have several options for reading this file type.
The easiest if you are traveling with a laptop is to download wikitaxi or BZ reader. These readers will work for any wiki dump which means if you want the entire Wikipedia resource available offline (~6GB) you can access it without having to extract it. If you have the space this is also a fantastic thing to have while you travel. You never know what you’ll want to look up.
- On mobile devices
For increased portability there are also options for smart phones and ipods. Depending on your device it can loaded with varying degrees of ease. The best interface by far is the wiki2travel app for the jail broken ipod or iphone. The Oxygen guide is the best for the Android OS, though is far inferior to wiki2travel for the iphone.
There is support for other devices as well, but I haven’t tried any of them. There are also a few apps that let you download and store the wiki travel pages and maps a la carte. One good example is itravelfree. The paid version lets you download and store everything offline. It is only $3 which is a bargain to have all the travel information you could want at your fingertips. Compare that to $30 for a single country Lonely Planet guide book.
If wikitravel doesn’t have a lot of detail on the destination you’re looking at Lonely Planet has offered an attractive answer to buying a paperback guide book. They now offer downloadable .pdf versions of most of their guides as well as the option to buy single chapters at a reduced price. Introductory planning chapters are always free which can help with your first-cut travel planning.

青椒炒鸡蛋
作者：陆芳 时间：2011-7-5 14:27:33
黄绿搭配，色彩美观，口味鲜香。
基本材料
新鲜青椒150克，鸡蛋3个，豆油60克，精盐、香油、葱花各适量。
制作方法
1.把青椒用清水洗净，去籽切成细丝。将鸡蛋打在碗里，加适量食盐，用筷子搅拌均匀。
2.锅内放油(40克)，烧热，将蛋汁倒入，炒好倒出，备用。
3.往锅内倒入余油，烧热，放入葱花炝锅，稍微发黄即可，随后放入青椒丝，加精盐炒几下，见青椒丝翠绿色时，放入炒好的鸡蛋，翻炒均匀，用香油烹一下，即可出锅。
美味提示
有些人喜欢放味精，其实在炒鸡蛋时最好不要放味精，这是最起码的常识。因为鸡蛋富含大量的谷氨酸和一 制作方法(11张)部分氯化钠，当鸡蛋被加热后，鸡蛋中的这两种物质会合成新的物质，这种物质化学名称叫谷氨酸钠，味精的主要成分就是这种物质，食物在加入这种物质后会有鲜味。但是，炒鸡蛋的时候如果放入味精这种物质，经过分解后的味精就会严重的破坏鸡蛋本身合成的自然鲜味。所以，建议各位家庭主妇在炒鸡蛋时切忌放入味精，这样才能保证鸡蛋的原汁原味。
