Over 85% of the world’s population lives in areas with existing cellular coverage, yet only about 30% of the total population accesses the internet. Affordability and awareness are significant barriers to internet adoption for many and today we are introducing the Internet.org app to make the internet accessible to more people by providing a set of free basic services.
With this app, people can browse a set of useful health, employment and local information services without data charges. By providing free basic services via the app, we hope to bring more people online and help them discover valuable services they might not have otherwise.
The Internet.org app will be available first to Airtel subscribers in Zambia and we’ll continue to improve the experience and roll it out to other parts of the world.
Through the Internet.org app, Airtel customers in Zambia will have basic access to:
*. AccuWeather
*. Airtel
*. eZeLibrary
*. Facebook
*. Facts for Life
*. Google Search
*. Go Zambia Jobs
*. Kokoliko

*. MAMA (Mobile Alliance for Maternal Action)
*. Messenger
*. Wikipedia
*. WRAPP (Women’s Rights App)
*. Zambia uReport
Airtel customers in Zambia can access these services in the Internet.org Android app, at www.internet.org, or within the Facebook for Android app.

Im so happy to hear this, I wonder if

1. They will bring the same app to Nigerian Market
2. If there is an SDK that we can use so that we can make apps that run on the platform.

So there's an internet.org app already

great... this will be an avenew to showcase their ads..

I believe it will have SDK so we can drop apps also
but what am thinking is that as far as I can access Google... sm hw I can access virtually anywhere then....


***well patiently waiting for them(internet.org) to branch 9ja***
