What is Knol?
By admin | August 21, 2008
Everyone knows last Google update was not small update. This update changed the working style and put many things upside down. Millions of sites lost their ranking and thousands got good ranks just because of Google Update.
I am not going to tell you the changes happened with Google. This post is about a NEW Tool of Google. Today I was analyzing ranks for most popular sites. Wikipedia is one of them. I found it lost that big reputation in Google ranks. It surprised me a bit. I started finding out what has happened. In meanwhile I found a board discussion where someone argued that Google is value of Wikipedia because Google has launched “Google Knol” and Wikipedia now come up with its own search engine to reduce dominance of Google.
To be very frank, I don’t believe it. Google just CAN’T discriminate organic results or Google is preparing to get finished.
Anyway, a new term I heard “Google Knol” With a second I found what it is. Google is now come up with its own information sharing medium and named it as Knol. Google says knol as “A unit of Knowledge“.
Knol facilitate its user to ask questions and answer them. To start with knol is available in English, French and Spanish.
I am very much sure Knol is going to be popular site in future like Orkut and Google Social bookmark.
