Google Knol is Coming

I’ve been reading all over the web about this new Wikipedia type site that Google is supposedly building named Google Knol. Seems the Knol stands for a unit of knowledge and I’m guessing its short for Knowledge base.

It will be really interesting see how this pans out for Google. Just to suppose and I have not data on this that perhaps this is a method to fill the void that Google Pages has left. I don’t know about everyone else, but I have not seen a lot of Google pages in the search results. Possibly because the app just does not have a lot of functionality. I have not looked at Google pages in quite a while, but do remember it was not impressive. One of things I did not like was that you could not add any JavaScript code in the pages. If Google would have allowed this and let me put some Adsense code on my Google pages then I may have spent some time creating content for them.

Looks like they are changing this with Google Knols as its reported they will allow the people who create the content for Google Knols to share in the revenue created from that content. This action may actually entice people to create more pages and to spend some time working on this project.
