Knol how

Google's got a new test project and for those in the know ... it's KNOL - which will bring together a collection of authoritative articles on various subjects. But it's not set to be a competitor or threat to the more well-known peer publisher - Wikipedia (yet). Mind you, Wikipedia has had its own share of headlines lately with news of ("suspicious and in at least one case, bizarre" according to the NY Times) changes to entries to the online encyclopaedia being traced to a military computer at the American naval base in Cuba.
