trying to figure out what is a knol.
so it's a measurement of knowledge
1 Knol.

man i've just seen 1 knol what it looks like looks like some intense research is needed to produce 1 Knol and not an average article and needed to be complete with photos as well.

Finally Wikipedia has a real competitor. With this, either Wikipedia becomes better, or people start jumping to Knol.

Thanks. I guess that makes nol.com extremely valuable now. Knol.com too. I wish Google would have called it QEMZ.

I translated with google translator Dutch to English:

Post from knol.com 24 July 08:

On various Web sites (including nu.nl) is now officially read that Google now has its own wikipedia started with the name Knol. There are articles by professionals and put these can be appreciated by readers.
And that we move google can appreciate Clearly, the focus on, especially our domain, is again grown considerably.
It needs no explanation that we are not here to follow up, as in december.

NOTE: We sell steamcleaning equipment and do not sell our domain!

Seems like a Wiki but not totally. But I do think that next time I go on searching on the google for some school project, I'll get more Knol Links than Wiki ones. Seems unfair to Wiki.

Knol who came up with that name anyways?

BTW what level of expertise is required to write good knols and be featured? Can we use Online Pictures or should we add our own?
