Good read!
Unfortunately, when you consistently look to be too generous, people get suspicious. You have to remember that this offer comes on the heels of the offer made to libraries by Google to digitize and host all the great books and documents in the world. Now this. Is Google trying to corner the all the world's information and then, once they have it all under their control, sell it back to us at a high fee?
Well, there is always two sides of a coin. Why would google want to host wikipedia pages without displaying any ads on them? Because MSN Search is pushing free Encarta content to entire web users? Or is it because Google trusts the wikepedia model and believes it will grow to a solid, proper knowledgebase, and more and its content will one day satisfy great lot of searches? Lets just keep speculating!
