			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Verdana" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt">A few  months ago Google announced on their <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/12/encouraging-people-to-contribute.html" title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/12/encouraging-people-to-contribute.html">blog</a>,  their newest venture entitled “<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knol" title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knol">Google Knowledge</a>” or “Knol” for  short. Basically they are going to create something quite similar to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page" title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page">Wikipedia</a>, but it will differ  because </span>each knol article will be written by a single author, and other  users can edit it only with permission from the author. Readers may rate or  comment on the articles. There can also be multiple articles for the same topic,  each written by a different author.</font> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Verdana" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt">In  response to this, it seems that today Wikipedia’s founder Jimmy Wales has  launched a search engine that takes a leaf out of the Wikipedia book. It’s  called <a href="http://search.wikia.com/wiki/Search_Wikia" title="http://search.wikia.com/wiki/Search_Wikia">Wikia</a>. The site still has  an index of the web like Google, but the idea behind this is that they take from  the expertise and knowledge of the Wikia community, to give you better and more  relative search results.  I&#8217;ve always thought that somehting like this would be a good idea. I&#8217;m sick of search results being the battle of who&#8217;s designers are better at SEO &#8211; rather than which sites are going to give you the information you need. </span></font></p>
