        <![CDATA[<p>Rob,</p>

<p>Interesting cartoon. About Knol, however, I have a recent analysis on <a href="http://yihongs-research.blogspot.com/2008/07/revolution-behind-google-knol.html" rel="nofollow">the revolution behind it</a>. You might be interested in reading it.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>Neat article, @Yihong. I'll have to read it in more detail when I have the time.</p>

<p>@Ravidor, if you saw my Squidoo revenues, you'd know greed isn't my motivation. :-)</p>

<p>@Andrus - in a sense you're completely right, and I was a little baffled by all of the coverage suggesting Google was going head-to-head with Wikipedia. And it's Squidoo and similar sites that I suspect are the most nervous about this development. But the Knol <em>model</em> (authority bolstered by community) is certainly in competition with the Wikipedia model (wisdom of crowds).</p>

<p>Thanks, all - keep the comments coming!</p>]]>
