Want to express your authority over a certain topic - use KNOL (and hopefully you can earn some money too)

Knols are authoritative articles about specific topics, written by people who know about those subjects. Knol is made available to everyone by search and advertising world’s supreme power - GOOGLE .

Knol will encourage people having good knowledge on a particular topic to contribute their knowledge online and make it accessible to everyone.

The key principle behind Knol is authorship. Every knol will have an author (or group of authors) who put their name behind their content. It’s their knol, their voice, their opinion.

With Knol, Google is introducing a new method for authors to work together that Google calls “moderated collaboration.” With this feature, any reader can make suggested edits to a knol which the author may then choose to accept, reject, or modify before these contributions become visible to the public. This allows authors to accept suggestions from everyone in the world while remaining in control of their content.

Knols include strong community tools which allow for many modes of interaction between readers and authors. People can submit comments, rate, or write a review of a knol. At the discretion of the author, a knol may include ads from Google’s AdSense program. If an author chooses to include ads, Google will provide the author with a revenue share from the proceeds of those ad placements.

Here is the URL in case you want to give this a try - knol.google.com
