Well, Wolfram Alpha is occasionally actually useful :-)

But Knol was never comparable to Wikipedia. Basically, the media
writing about Knol's launch needed to write something to fill space in
an article, and Wikipedia was a handy comparison because they're both
websites. There was and is no actual similarity. Don't believe the
hype.
