[learn] - E.O. Wilson: TED Prize wish: Help build the Encyclopedia of Life (22 minute video) (or download the 330mb version)
and the shorter interface demonstration at: EoL.org (4 minute video)
EoL will launch in mid 2008. It will incorporate information from the Catalogue of Life (1,008,965 species listed), amongst other sources.
(see also Wikispecies (100,000 species listed) one of the 9 official wikimedia sister projects, which might end up merging into one of these?)
e.g. the yeti crab:
at Encyclopedia of Life:– yeti crab
at Catalogue of Life:– yeti crab
at Wikipedia:– yeti crab
at Wikispecies:– yeti crab
