Airtel customers can now pull info from Wikipedia in Bangladesh

DHAKA: Airtel mobile customers in Bangladesh can now easily pull information from Wikipedia via SMS and access content without the need of activating mobile internet.

Bharti Airtel, a leading global telecommunications company, Tuesday announced the launch of the first-ever SMS-based access to Wikipedia content for customers in Bangladesh.

With the facility, a total of 50 lakh-plus Airtel mobile customers will be the first in the country to leverage this unique service and easily search anything on Wikipedia via SMS without the need of subscribing to mobile internet or GPRS services, says a press release.

Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Airtel Bangladesh Ltd Chris Tobit said, “Information is the most powerful tool in today’s world. With the launch of a first-of-its-kind SMS-based access to Wikipedia for customers in Bangladesh, we are delighted to bring easy and 24x7 access to information at the fingertips of 5-million-plus Airtel mobile customers in the country.

He added: “We will continue to deliver service innovations that will help us move closer to our commitment of providing life enriching experience for Airtel mobile customers.”

The news release said to access any information on Wikipedia or conduct a simple Wikipedia search-all customers have to do is to type “wiki” and SMS that to 5353, upon which, they will receive an SMS response with material pulled from Wikipedia.

For example, by sending “wikiDhaka” to 5353, Airtel mobile customers will receive a 300-character-long SMS reply with facts on Dhaka gathered from Wikipedia. For every request, 2Tk/SMS charge applicable, it added.

Airtel partners with Facebook, provides access to accounts without a data connection

Based on Fonetwish which has been developed by U2opia Mobile, a social and mobile applications provider, this service makes use of the menu-based USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data) system, which acts as browser to pull content to the phone, instead of using a regular browser.

Enabling the service

Airtel users can now simply dial *325# or *fbk# on their phones to update their Facebook status, free of cost.

Users can also opt for a full Facebook experience i.e. view or comment or ‘Like’ any news feed stories, post on your friends’ walls, manage friend requests and view notifications at Rs 1 / day.

Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Shireesh Joshi, Director – Marketing, Mobile Services, Bharti Airtel said:

In the Indian market scenario, where the penetration of smart phones is relatively low and use of internet on mobile is primarily limited to key cities, many users are excluded from accessing their Facebook accounts via mobile phones. The need for a ubiquitous access mechanism is a growing necessity – and that’s exactly what Airtel’s USSD service for Facebook will help deliver. Facebook is seeing exponential growth in India and the popularity of this platform runs across demographics. We look forward to bringing millions of Facebook users in India closer to their love for social networking – by allowing them to access it anytime, anywhere on their Airtel powered mobile phones.

Mr. Henri Moissinac, Head of Mobile Business, Facebook said:

At Facebook, we are always exploring ways to enable people to easily connect and share with friends on Facebook wherever they are, whenever they want. This innovative USSD-based Facebook access service that will be offered by Airtel is another affordable and easy way for people to stay connected with their friends and family through Facebook.

However, this is not the first time Airtel has offered free access to Facebook for its customers. Last July, it had offered a free access to Facebook’s mobile site for all its users, for 2 months.

Facebook had also launched a similar global initiative called “Facebook Zero” last May, where it had partnered with 50+ operators across the world to launch a text-only version of Facebook at zero data charges.
