Encyclopedia of Life
The Encyclopedia of Life website has just been in launched.
The project is running on a $50 million budget which may climb to $100 million.
Scientists are officially planning to compile everything they know about all 1.8 million species on Earth. The project will take about 10 years to complete.
The first demo page is here: http://www.eol.org/demonstration.html
This is something definitely worth keeping an eye on as it progresses.
