Google Knol Bites the Dust

Just received this message from Google:

As part of Google's prioritization of product efforts, we will be retiring Knol. From now through April 30th, 2012, Knol will work as usual, but we've made it easy for you to download your knols to file and/or export them to Wordpress.com. From May 1, 2012 through October 1, 2012, knols will no longer be viewable, but can be downloaded and exported. After that time, knol content will no longer be accessible. We hope that this timeline provides you ample time to transition your content. For more information, please visit our FAQ: https://knol-redirects.appspot.com/faq.html

    I seems to me that Google is trying to take over every part of the Internet. Focusing on too many projects at once.

    Guessing Google will come up with a Pinterest-esque site shortly..........

      I totally agree. It seems as if google has been on a poor run of form with it's recent product launches. Things like google+ don't seem to be all that successful.
