TheGoogle KnolI created just yesterday entitled 'How to Read the Russian Alphabet in 75 Minutes' is already appearing on Page 1 of a Google Search for "read russian" with 12,300,000 results following.

I have updated the title within Knol from the one showing in the Google index, but that's still a pretty impressive result for content that I created and put online only yesterday.

Disclosure: Google say they'll pay me from any adsense revenue the page generates. But they do that as an opt-in or opt-out for any Knol author.

This is part of the reason why I was interested in Google Knol from December last yearwhen it was first announced. Well, we'll see how it develops, but it looks like a fairly effective way to share your knowledge, get good search positions, and also perhaps make some money.

Until someone pinches your content...
