The Encyclopedia of Life is to be a web resource that will describe
all 1.8 known living things on earth and the many more likely to be
found in the future. This is a massive undertaking that involves many
universities etc. Information and a few demo pages are now up on at
http://www.eol.org/ . Go to the demo pages to see what it will look
like. The demo pages are not complete, and many links on them are
still to be added. It likely will be sometime in 2008 before a many
finished pages start to appear. Code could change a lot, but at this
early stage it appears this massive site will use flash for video
rather than a Microsoft or Real format. First Real lost many sites to
Microsoft. Now many huge sites have changed from Microsoft to flash.
