The KnowledgeWeb Project is a learning web site about knowledge envisioned and supervised by James Burke and the Institute for Educational Innovation. It is a non-profit, all volunteer project.

The mission of the site is to present knowledge in a highly interconnected, holistic way. The goal is not only to inform about the scientists, artists, innovators and explorers of history but also to find the connections between them and impact they have had on modern life. Initially the Knowledge Web will have 2200 entries linked over 16,000 ways. Later it will grow to include a theoretically unlimited amount of information. In later phases data visualization technologies will allow users visual interaction with the contents of the site. The project is looking for volunteers (volunteers@k-web.org).
