In the Race

Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in the Red Queen's Race...

A New Online Refererence Tool..."A Unit Of Knowledge"

By Janet Evans

Wikipedia is an online reference tool that has caused some controversy due to the fact that anyone and their brother can add fact…or fiction, to its ever-growing body of information.  For general information on topics that can be cross referenced, Wikipedia can be pretty handy. 
 Google has unveiled its own online reference tool …a free online encyclopedia called “Knol.”  You can find it at http://knol.google.com



 “Knol” references a unit of knowledge.



If you create a Google login you may submit an article.  “Knol” is just a baby and, so far, only has several hundred articles.

The difference with “Knol?” 

Unlike Wikipedia, you
must identify yourself when submitting an article.
