There are some twitter messages today. Knol still lives?

This message is in response to

Yes, Knol is going forward and growing. So far in this year, 200,000 new knols posted. By year end we will see 300,000. May be next year we will see 500,000. Knol is attracting many new authors.

Page views and visitors are increasing. We estimate 5.23 million unique visitors per month. Momentum is very good and we will reach 6.2 million in two or three months.

Knol authors even though very silent are doing a good job. Congratulations.

Unofficial Google Knol Home Page

I today created an unofficial Google Knol Home Page.

Knol authors are suggesting various changes to Google Knol Home page. The idea that I got is that knol authors can start the knol pages of their design and try to popularize them. If they are found useful, Knol designers will incorporate those features in official knol home page later.
