Demise of Knol

[elle]

Many Knol contributors have spent hours researching and writing
articles for Google Knol so that others may benefit from their
findings. But sadly Google has decided to terminate the life of Knols
soon. So our Knols have to find a new home. Webpress Annotum has been
the site selected by Google for this transfer but at the moment it is
not going smoothly. Hopefully this site can discuss some of our
problems and anxieties and help you to get around it.

Good that an initiative was launched to support migration.

I think we still do not have good understanding of migration. I just
downloaded my files using Google takeout. But I do not know how to
upload those files to Wordpress or Blogger.

Narayana Rao, thank you for your reply. I suppose we are all groping
in the dark. I hope by posting here we can help each other and others
to find there way through this confusing time. I know you have written
many Knols as I have, and spent many years, since the inception of
Knol, submitting articles. Now it seems this effort has just been
brushed aside because Knol is not commercially viable.

I also have a Blogger account, and a Google Docs account, and others
and I am not attempting to decide whether to stick to Webpress
Annotum, of to one of the others for a permanent location . My inkling
is to transfer to Google Docs because the presentation format, and the
indexing is similar. But I am not sure if there is a limit to the
space provided. Blogger, seems to provide plenty of space from my
observations.

PS: I have made both your functions more flexible and versatile.
