I said I’d get back to you with a report regarding Google “knol”, their new project to build a knowledge base.
I posted two knol articles back at the end of April to see if Google was ready to take on Wikipedia. I’m proud to report that my knol posting about microphone stands has had a total of 42 page views, several of which I am sure were me.
No one has bothered to rate it and no one has made any collaborative contributions.
While it appears that I might be right about Google not being in a position to challenge Wikipedia, I am certainly wrong about Google using knol as another way to display relevant ads.
The google ads on my mic stand knol page are about cell phones.
