The single greatest web app I've ever seen. You can display the original text and click on every single word to see a grammatical parse (beside the translation). So many other web sites pale in comparison, despite having more colours.

The Tufts site is good, but I wanted a better mobile view. So I made PlinyPedia.

- There is no “J” in Latin.

- Look in the toolbar where there's a back/"Browse" button, and also many links in the description text ("PlinyPedia is reformatted to be mobile-friendly", Search and Browse to find out even more".
How can I make that more obvious?
- No joke!
