I have announced that I am writing a report titled “Knoling For Fame + Dollars”. But I think I forgot to tell you what Knoling is.

Well my definition for Knoling is “writing a Knol”.

As you know, Knol is a Google initiative to creating an online encyclopedia. And many people will be wiring their Knols. So again, the process of writing a Knol is Knoling.

In the report, I will explore the ways to make Money with Knoling and also earn the Fame.

Have a great time!

“Knoling For Fame + Dollars” is the title of my upcoming report.

In the report “Knoling For Fame + Dollars” I am writing about the ways to make money by writing for Google Knol.

In the report I will also answer the following questions:

• How to set up a Knol? or How to start Knoling (the process of writing a Knol)?
• How to put advertisements in Knol?
• How to promote your Knol?
• How to add references to a Knol?
• How to write good Knolws?
• How to verify your name as Knolar (one who writes Knols)?

And I will also talk about the advanced Knoling techniques.

The report will be released in maximum of 10 days.

Have a great time

I read about Knol many days back, but did not share with anyone as I wasn’t writing on my personal blog

Dhruv, a hard working boy and my brother, hinted me to write about Knol by sending me the details of an article published by The Times Of India.

According to Google, the Knol project is a site that hosts many knols — units of knowledge — written about various subjects.

The Knol competitor, Wikipedia describes Knol as: “Knol is a Google project which aims to include user-written articles on topics ranging from “scientific concepts, to medical information, from geographical and historical, to entertainment, from product information, to how-to-fix-it instructions.”^[1] The brainchild of Udi Manber of Google,^[2] it was announced on December 13, 2007 and was opened in beta to the public on July 23, 2008^[3] with a few hundred articles mostly in the health and medical field.” [source]

As Google is the gatekeeper to all the knowledge available on the Internet, it has an advantage of beating its nearest rival. Another advantage Google has is the funds it has to promote and last its efforts.

Another good trick Google is playing to popularize the Knol usage is the earning part for its writers. Google will put advertisements on the pages of Knol writers and share the revenue among them.

The Times of India writes: “Knol, named to represent “a unit of knowledge”, seems to be an attempt to fill in the blanks left by Wikipedia’s more community-oriented approach to disseminating information. Knol’s basic premise is the same — to create an online reference library that people contribute to — but it represents a significant departure from Wikipedia, so far the dominant source for information on subjects as disparate as Einstein and the Riot Grrl movement.” [source]

By the way I am going to try out Knol to share my knowledge and make money out of it.
