Knowledge is a great thing to have, keep and expand

When Wikipedia first entered the internet fray it stunned a number of folks. After all, how could you trust a collection of diverse people that took it upon themselves to help define our world.

Today, the Wikimedia Project extends to multiple languages, is part of our daily life and in fact, indispensable to students of all ages. It takes user generated content to the nth degree.

But wait there's more (as the DTV commercial goes). . . Google has introduced "Knol: a unit of knowledge." (A knol is an authoritative article about a specific topic according to Google.)

The good news is that we now have another user generated content site to serve our research needs. The other good news, from a marketing standpoint, is that Google once again, has an opportunity to capture more of our time.
