I don’t get all the fanfare about Google’s recent “Knowledge Graph” launch -- surely it’s just another step on Google’s path of evolving search?First, we had Google’s attempt to show us more than just links with Universal Search in 2007 – that started incorporating aspects like images and news.Secondarily, and totally coincidentally, we had Google Squared which was viewed as more of a computational engine that extracted data from webpages and presented them in search results in a ...Google Knowledge Graph: Forcing businesses to amplify great content
