With much talk on the need and demand of Arabic content on the Internet, and with Wikipedia rapidly expanding its website to host more Arabic pages, Qordoba has made a perfectly timed entrance. The tech-community and the Arab world demand more information – Qordoba is here to give it.
With the Bon team also gearing up to introduce its first iBook series, meant to immerse students in the customs, people and heart of an international community, we’re loving the global approach to digital lit.
